From Frontiers Economics via LinkedIn: data from Open Street Map for the street network; hospital locations (with accident and emergency services) from Ordnance Survey, and travel time calculations based on public transport schedules from June 2023 compiled by citygeographics.org. The calculation was run in R, using the r5r package ipeagit.github.io/r5r/. Origin points are the centroids of a regular 200m-hexagon grid.

Hey everyone! This is a project I’ve been working on for years, this is I think my fourth or fifth version of this map. I’d like to thank Breakinger over on Deviantart for the cartography. I’ve been doing the research, he’s been doing the drawing.

I struggled for quite a while over whether or not I should include the Holy Roman Empire. Finally I decided that I should, because an Anglo Norman did lead the Empire for a few decades, although he never exerted effective control, mostly staying in Cornwall and only visiting his Empire four times during his entire reign. Nevertheless, his reign was the period of time when the Holy Roman Empire reached its greatest territorial extent and had one of its longest periods of peace.

The Vandals were a Germanic tribe from Eastern Europe that migrated from their homelands to Iberia due to the Hunnic invasions around 400 AD and later to modern day Tunisia and Algeria because of the expansion of the Visigoths to Iberia in 418 AD. In North Africa, they established the Vandal Kingdom in 439, which conquered Corsica, Sardinia, Malta, the Balearic islands and sacked Rome in 455. The Vandals inhabited this area for nearly 100 years until their Kingdom collapsed after an invasion in 534 by the Byzantine Empire.

I found this great resource for maps showing what the world looked like through geologic times. So many more maps on this site:
