3 things I noticed, 2 differences I noticed between the maps, 1 thing I wonder.

3 Things I noticed - Map B seems a bit Outdated, Both maps have Florida in the same place and look very similar, Map A has more Dark Gray colors than any other color.

2 Differences - Map A has more identified states or "parts" than Map B, Map A seems like the kind of Map to be used in school while Map B seems it would be used well to determine stuff for like World War 1 and 2.

1 thing i wonder - why does the middle part of Map B, look a gun???

it was a act of seld fesnse more over it was a peace treaty between the fogein contunries.

well the fact it is basically a peninsula allowed trade to come from many places, thus allowing cultural diffusion to take place. india has seasonal monsoons that merchants travel back and forth from india using the monsoons wind patterns
