Looks cool, Fritz.
How did you find it?
>>
>>668662
Bought it at a thrift shop for 3 €.
That place is a gold mine, other gems I found there include another atlas from the 1920s and a book from 1895 describing a voyage to Japan and China

Preface
>>
>>668668
I've got an atlas from the late 20s/early 30s as well that features not only maps of the german colonies, but even goes as far as marking the 1914 borders with fitted lines on the Germany maps
>>
>>668624
Odd they've made Ireland appear as part of the UK, the republic had existed for quite a while by 1939
>>
>>668650
>we wuz colonial empires n shit
They weren't even being subtle about their colonial irredentism.
>>
>>668625
>Danzig as colored in as part of Eastern Prussia
Cheeky
>>
>>668773
It's not, it's supposed to be part of the Reichsgau Danzig-Westpreußen.
The color is used for all of Prussia, the only reason it's colored in while the other parts of the gau aren't is because it was annexed (one day) prior to Polands division

can you translate ?
>>
>>669091
Im not German but I'll do my best to roughly translate. I had a drink too so Germans, please don't judge.

>even though the political world changed a lot in 1938
>something about 1939 being changing as well (Slovakia, Böhmen and Mähren, the Memellanden, Danzig)
>not only Europe, the Turkish territories have changed as well
>that's why it was necessary to review our atlas
>special thanks to Dr. Erwin Kosinna (geology and geography), Dr. Schrameier (redaction [?] and economy)
>weare happy to see this work to evolve to an actualised world atlas, ready to be used for your studies and daily use

A really rough translation, though correct (I assume).
>>
>>669091
No problem bruh I'm fluent in nazi babble

>The geopolitical changes in 1939 were even more significant than those of 1938
>the slovakian declaration of independence, 14. March 1939
>the establishment of the reich protectorate of bohemia and moravia, 16. March 1939
>Reunion of the Memel area with the Reich, 23. March 1939
>reunion of Danzig with the Reich, 1. September 1939
>Collapse of the Versailles state of poland in September 1939
>but there were territorial changes in other parts of the world as well, for example the return of Hatay to turkey
>Because of this, the maps and texts in this atlas had to be heavily edited

The rest is basically just an usual preface, they credit some of the co-authors for their work and stuff like that
