= Very rare. The complete set of maps consists of 64 detailed maps (1:200.000), showing southern Hebei Province and all of Shandong Province. No complete copy traced on the market, and no separate maps either. The United Nations Library at Geneva and ERIC (Education Resources Information Centre) have a (near) complete copy of the map in their holdings. Both can be referenced online. The history of the creation of this map is as follows: The Kiautschou Bay Leased Territory was a German leased territory of 552 km2 in Imperial and Early Republican China from 1898 to 1914. From 1860 onwards the Germans became interested in gaining influence and a foothold in Asia, and especially in China. Surveyors were sent to Kiautschou Bay (Jiaozhou Bay). After negotations and the signing of the Prussian-Chinese Treaty of Peking in 1861, the Germans decided to establish a naval base in Jiaozhou Bay. The murder of two German Roman Catholic Priest by angry Chinese peasants belonging to the Big Sword Society in 1897, resulted in German miltary retaliation and occupation of the area in Kiautschou Bay (Jiaozhou Bay). After negotations with the Chinese, a deal was struck by which Germany was given the leasehold of the bay for 99 years in 1898. Germany lost the bay in 1914 to the Japanese at the outbreak of World War I. The Japanese returned the territory to China in 1922, but reoccupied it again between 1937-1945. After World War II the territory was returned to China again. SEE ILLUSTRATION PLATE LXVII.
