The Imperiia Project: a spatial history of the Russian Empire

swamps

[What does the map above tell you?]

Ah, swamps. Everyone's favorite topic. The cards make note of their presence, and often specify "a significant quantity," but otherwise we are left to image what they looked and smelled like, and whether they were seen as resources or obstacles.

If you are interested in swamps, you might also want to read up on salt lakes. Even better, consider yourself invited to "Wade into the Putrid Sea"!
