A scarce separate-issue 1827 map of European Russia by C. F. Weiland. It covers from Lapland to the Caspian Sea and from the Baltic Sea to the Ural Mountains. Various, important rivers, islands, cities and other topographical details are noted.

In 1825, shortly before this map was drawn, Russian army officers, called the Decembrists, protested against Nicholas I's ascension to the throne. The Decembrists (so named because their revolt started in December), favored Nicholas I's brother, Constantine, who seemed amenable to a British style constitutional monarchy. When Constantine abdicated the throne in 1825, the Decembrists refused to accept the more autocratic rule of Nicholas I. Had Constantine not abdicated and the Decembrists been successful, the bloody Bolshevik Revolution may never have occurred.

This map was created by C. F. Weiland and published by the Weimar Geographical Institute.
