I'm aware. It's just too small to show. If I added a dot for it, it would've appeared in a different colour from the other dots.

Epic quiz! Other than Tibet's borders being modern, I see absolutely no flaws in the map. Got 42. Quite challenging and fun. Hoping to see this on FP one day! Nommed :D

After the Battle of Delhi in 1803, Shahjahanabad (modern-day Old Delhi) was the only holding possession left in the hands of the Mughals. This practice would end after the Indian Rebellion of 1857.

Danish territories in India were mostly limited to coastal settlements and to the Andaman and Nicobar Islands.

However, by 1845, Denmark only held the Andaman and Nicobar Islands. By 1848, the Danish started a slow process of abandoning the islands and fully sold the rights to the British in 1868, who would annex the islands the following year.
