This stunning poster, designed by Jules Chéret, is the very first official advertisement for the legendary Orient Express.
Running from London and Paris to Constantinople (Istanbul), the Orient Express wasn’t just a train - it was a symbol of elegance, adventure, and mystery.
The Republic of Venice, or the "Serenissima" and the The Stato da Màr (overseas territories) at the Republic's apex, ca. 1460
The textbook example of "thalassokratia" (an empire at sea). Pioneered by its creator and later main nemesis, the medieval Roman Empire aka Byzantium
