    Largest Freeway Systems in 2025

    Please note that I couldn’t find a source that included every single freeway (road, 1 or more lanes each direction, limited access), so I had to manually add the missing freeways in PowerPoint. This post is an update to a previous post from June 20, 2025 where commenters noticed that many freeways were missing on the map. Please let me know if there are other missing freeways.

    The Global Italian Diaspora
    The Global Italian Diaspora

    Curiosity: During the large wave of Italian migration in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, about 80% of Italians who immigrated to Argentina came from Southern Italy, mainly Calabria, Sicily, and Campania. These immigrants played a key role in shaping Argentine culture, especially in cities like Buenos Aires, influencing language, cuisine, and tango. In Brazil, approximately 80% of Italian immigrants were from Veneto, a region in Northern Italy. This difference reflects each country’s migration policies and economic profiles: Brazil sought rural settlers to work on plantations, and Venetians, with their agricultural background, fit better with the German settlers already living in the southern part of Brazil, making their adaptation and integration easier. Argentina, on the other hand, attracted more southern Italians seeking urban opportunities amid economic crisis in their home regions, contributing to the country’s industrial and cultural growth.

    Administrative Dioceses of the Roman Empire in 395 CE with Proconsular Provinces Highlighted
    Administrative Dioceses of the Roman Empire in 395 CE with Proconsular Provinces Highlighted

    A map showing the administrative dioceses of the Roman Empire as they stood in 395 CE, the year of Emperor Theodosius I’s death, when the empire was permanently split into East and West.

    This map visualizes one of the most overlooked layers of late Roman governance:
    Dioceses - regional groupings of provinces governed by a vicarius.
    3 Proconsular Provinces: Asia, Africa, and Achaia. Which reported directly to the emperor.
    Based on the 1911 Historical Atlas by William R. Shepherd, cleaned and rebuilt for clarity.

    The source map is old and I'm sure I missed something. Let me know if you notice something.

    Woman, in different languages

    Corrections and suggestions, welcome. If there are many mistakes, I'll publish a second version.

    Preparing this map I discovered that "woman", in English, comes from "wife of a man". The times have changed, indeed.

    Distribution of Ogham Stones in Ireland
    Distribution of Ogham Stones in Ireland

    So I've made my first attempt at an ARGIS map showing the distribution of Ogham Stones across Ireland. To do this I combined the historical monument data from the National Monument Service (Ireland) with the Open Data (UK), cleaned these up with some basic transformation, and then used ARCGIS to visualise.

    What I want to do next is begin analysing the relationship between the sites and geographical features and elevation. I couldn't find a good elevation map for the whole of Ireland so would welcome any suggestions if others have them.

    Also - this being my first attempt at ARCGIS - I'd welcome any experienced views on how to improve the visualisation and follow best practice.

    Percentage of Latter-day Saints across the United States (by county)

    I previously made a map showing the distribution of Latter-day Saints in the United States based purely on population. By popular demand, I have also created a map now showcasing the percentage of Latter-day Saints in the United States by county. All data used in the creation of this map comes from the 2020 U.S. Religion Census.
