The map, in the archives of the Pierre-Almaric mediatheque in Albi, shows 25 counties over 3 continents and has belonged to the state since the revolution.
There are two very distinct groups of maps surviving: those of Anglo-Norman/French origin and those originating in Spain. The earliest maps, such as the Albi Map and the Vatican Library World Map appear to have drawn strongly on Roman models.
