Historique
The Survey of India was created in 1767 to map the territory covered by the British East India Company. From the 1880s onwards it produced maps of land further west in the Middle East, covering Persia (Iran), Mesopotamia (Iraq) and Arabia (Gulf States). Revised maps of Mesopotamia were produced for the Allied military campaign, World War One, with some uncharted regions left blank.
