The South American continent by F. von Stulpnagel, appearing in Stieler's Hand Atlas, 1869. A handsome map featuring the topography and rivers of the south american interior, as well as political boundaries during a busy period of post-colonial reorganisation and the "War of the Triple Alliance" in Paraguay. The borders of many South American countries were still in flux during the late 19th century. Disputes over boundaries were common, as were treaties and negotiations to settle these disagreements. This era saw many international arbitrations and treaties, which would gradually shape the modern map of the continent.
