A New Centre of World Alarm During the Second World War - A Panoramic Map of the Mediterranean, Showing the Principal Bases
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative panoramic map, created by G.H. Davis in 1940, offers a compelling glimpse into the strategic importance of the Mediterranean during the early stages of the Second World War. The map serves as a testament to the enduring significance of this body of water, which has long been a focal point of European and African history and a nexus of geopolitical intrigue. At the heart of the map lie the names that have figured in so many wars throughout history: Gibraltar, Toulon, Naples, Malta, and Alexandria. These key locations, which have shaped the course of European and African history for centuries, were once again at the forefront of global discussions as the world braced for the challenges of the Second World War. But this map also highlights new strategic points of importance, such as Rhodes, Izmit, and Haifa. These emerging key locations underscore the dynamic nature of the Mediterranean theatre of war and the ever-evolving geopolitical landscape of the region. The Mediterranean, with its European and African coasts, has long been a critical link between the Middle East and Europe. As the map reveals, the region's strategic importance was not lost on the world's military and political leaders during the Second World War. The Mediterranean's North African and Eastern European coasts, in particular, were hotly contested, with control of these areas often determining the outcome of major campaigns. This panoramic map, produced by G.H. Davis in 1940, offers a unique perspective on the Mediterranean during a pivotal moment in world history. It serves as a reminder of the enduring significance of this body of water and the strategic importance of the regions that surround it.
