The map shows the expanse of unexplored territory in the northwest, the Hudson Bay Company territory, the territories of California, Texas, Louisiana, and Florida under the Spanish Viceroyalty of Mexico, and the northern extent of the Viceroyalty of New Grenada (Columbia and Venezuela) to the Panama Isthmus. The Caribbean island of Jamaica, the Bahamas, and the coast of the Yucatan (British Honduras, or Belize) are shown as British possessions, with Cuba and Puerto Rico to Spain.
