1875 map of the Philippines created by Spain showing the archipelago surrounded by the South China Sea and the Philippine Sea and Borneo. General mountainous topography and major rivers are depicted and features like cities, towns are labeled along with many land and water features. The United States republished the map in 1902 with annotations showing telegraph cable lines and the division of the archipelago into the North and South Military Department.
