StoryMaps
Others argue that all maps lie - that they are shaped or corrupted by political hierarchies and cultural practices.
At Imperiia, we insist that every map tells a story.
In this section, we draw out the story (or stories) told by a single map. Here we do our best to assemble the backstory, introduce the characters, explain the historical context, and pull in images and texts that allow an individual map to speak. Sometimes it is a matter of putting things together, but sometimes it is a matter of pulling them apart. You will see. Either way, it probably won't be what you expect.
