This map, drawn by French author Jylbert in 1943, is part of a series of 20 maps published in Vichy France to teach schoolchildren about the extent and diversity of the empire's colonies.
The pictorial map is dedicated to the Caribbean islands of Guadeloupe and Martinique, which were already part of France at that time, although the author also subtly includes the island of Dominica, which at that time belonged to the United Kingdom. The fact that the map does not openly state that Dominica was not part of France is part of the propaganda game of this map, whose main objective was to flex its muscles.
