Can I get help? I have to write a paper over a map but no idea how to work a map. There is pink ( or maybe red it's old from 1874), green, orange, and yellow. I don't know what the colors mean or what it means that the land is divided by those colors.

Answer 1

There should be a key identifying the colors. What is the title of this map?

Answer 2

Asher & Adams' Oregon. Entered according to Act of Congress in the year 1874 by Asher & Adams ... at Washington. (New York, 1874)

Should be the first map that pulls up on google images.

Answer 3

The description below the map gives a good explanation.
