Europe Post-War

The geography of Europe was changed after the war and students quickly learned the new countries of Europe. This map was drawn by a student prior to the war. The war continued to affect people after its end because geographic boundaries had changed and people were suddenly living in a new country under new leadership. 

View a map of Europe after the war and try to spot the differences, including the creation of Poland, Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia, Czechoslovakia​, and Yugoslavia. ​
