Dioceses, Medieval Europe, 1200-1500

Description:

Polygons of the boundaries of ca. 750 dioceses across Latin Christendom as they appeared between 1200-1500. Rather than corresponding to any particular year, the map is an amalgam that displays all Latin dioceses that existed at some point during this period. The map excludes dioceses in the Latin East and in parts of eastern Europe whose boundaries are unknown (or were never established).
