Boundary changes associated with World War I (1914 - 1918) and World War II (1939 - 1945) can be viewed by turning off all other layers and toggling between the two.    Data for each layer comes from a variety of sources, including historical atlases and the Library of Congress website - https://www.loc.gov/maps/.</dc:description><dc:format>Shapefile</dc:format><dc:identifier>https://umn.maps.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=85e35d64d67f425c94ebca45dad6568a</dc:identifier><dc:identifier>https://doi.org/10.13020/146x-1412</dc:identifier><dc:identifier>https://hdl.handle.net/11299/227302</dc:identifier><dc:language>eng</dc:language><dc:rights>Public</dc:rights><dc:title>Historical National Boundaries {1800-2000}</dc:title><dc:type>Datasets</dc:type><dc:type>Web services</dc:type><dc:coverage>Afghanistan</dc:coverage><dc:coverage>Syria</dc:coverage><dc:coverage>Iraq</dc:coverage><dc:coverage>Ethiopia</dc:coverage><dc:coverage>Somalia</dc:coverage><dc:date>1800-2000</dc:date><dc:contributor>University of Minnesota</dc:contributor></oai_dc:dc>
