This is one of Henry Popple's most famous works. It's a detailed map showing not only British territories in North America but also nearby French and Spanish settlements.
French Colonies in America: These were areas in North America that were colonized by France during roughly same period when Britain was establishing its own colonies there. They are shown on Popple's map alongside British territories.
Spanish Colonies in America: Like France and Britain, Spain also had colonies in North America during this period. These are also depicted on Popple's map.
Territorial Disputes: These are disagreements between countries over the ownership of land. The presence of British, French, and Spanish settlements so close to each other in North America often led to such disputes.
