File talk:Roman provinces trajan.svg
Roman Greece, the province of Achaea is misspelled (map says "Achala").
Pannonia Superior and Pannonia Inferior are the opposite ones. Superior means "higher" and inferior means "lower" (in relation to Danube river). I've also checked WP articles on both provinces — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mask~ruwiki (talk • contribs) 13:40, 15 November 2023 (UTC)
Major map update due to lots of factual errors
edit
Since this map unfortunately contains a lot of factual errors, see
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File_talk:Roman_provinces_trajan_2.svg
I therefore updated it and released the update as a new file

Licensing:

The “Licensing” information of this file
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Roman_provinces_trajan.svg
says it is “public domain”, but since it has been derived from “Blank Map of Europe -w boundaries.svg”
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Blank_Map_of_Europe_-w_boundaries.svg
which was licensed “under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 or any later version published by the Free Software Foundation; with no Invariant Sections, no Front-Cover Texts, and no Back-Cover Texts.” as well as “the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 3.0 Unported license” this cannot be true.
The license information therefore should be updated.
