NEW MAP: Europe 1812: French retreat from Moscow (24 October 1812) https://omniatlas.com/maps/europe/18121024/ Despite the French capture of Moscow, the Russians refused to negotiate and Napoleon eventually realized that he had no option but to withdraw. In late October 1812 the French marched southwest towards Kaluga, in the hope of taking a fresh route back west, but were halted at Maloyaroslavets. Persuaded that the Kaluga road was no longer viable, Napoleon now decided to return along the same route he had come, a path already devastated by his advance. #1810s #1812 #19thcentury #atlas #europe #europeanhistory #france #history #historyclass #historygram #historyinthemaking #historylesson #historylover #historyschool #historyteacher #maps #napoleon #napoleonic #napoleonicwars #october #october24 #frenchhistory #russianempire #peninsularwar #strategy #militaryhistory #welovehistory #worldhistory #newmap (at Maloyaroslavets)

Asia Pacific 80 years ago today: Franco-Thai War (13 April 1941) https://buff.ly/2wF7iUo Thailand saw the French capitulation to Japan as weakness, seizing the opportunity to regain lost territories by invading French Indochina. The Japanese quickly put a stop to this war, but supported Thai claims at the ensuing peace treaty. With its focus now on the south, Japan signed a neutrality pact with the Soviet Union. #1941 #april #april13 #asiapacific #frenchindochina #indochine #vichyfrance #frenchempire #historias #histories #historybuff #historygram #historylovers #historymaker #historyschool #instahistory #japaneseempire #japanesehistory #maps #worldwar2 #wwii #ww2 #worldwarii #thailand #secondworldwar #britishempire #worldatlas #todayinhistory #historytoday #thisdayinhistory (at Bangkok, Thailand)

North America 160 years ago today: Attack on Fort Sumter (12 April 1861) https://buff.ly/2P4fceF Despite the Confederacy’s declaration of independence, the United States Army still garrisoned a number of forts in the south. The most vulnerable was Fort Sumter in Charleston harbor, South Carolina, which desperately needed to be resupplied. However when newly elected US President Lincoln ordered the navy to ship in supplies, the Confederate government considered it an act of war and attacked the fort from land. The American Civil War had begun. #1861 #19thcentury #americancivilwar #americanhistory #april #april12 #confederacy #fortsumter #historicalmaps #histories #historyfacts #historygram #historymajor #historymatters #historyschool #mapping #maps #northamerica #southcarolina #militaryhistory #ushistory #uscivilwar #confederatestates #victorian #victorianera #abrahamlincoln #worldatlas #todayinhistory #historytoday #thisdayinhistory (at Fort Sumter Tours)

NEW MAP: Europe 276: Probus vs Florian (August 276) https://buff.ly/3uCtuH2 Tacitus was succeeded by his half-brother Florian, who was almost immediately challenged by the general Probus. Although Probus was only recognized in a few eastern provinces, and had a much smaller army, he quickly outmaneuvered and deposed Florian to become the sole emperor in September 276. #thirdcentury #3rdcentury #antiquity #ancientrome #aegyptus #europe #europeanhistory #historias #historicalmaps #historyclass #historyfacts #historygram #historylesson #historymaker #map #mapmaking #maps #romansyria #phoenicia #roman #romancivilwar #romancivilwars #romanempire #romanhistory #romans #romanemperor #spqr #teachinghistory #worldatlas #newmap (at Antioch, Turkey)
