I find it amazing when you look at the quality of Soviet maps. They managed to accurately depict the world before the era of satellites and the internet. This is an excerpt from a top secret Soviet Army map in the early 70’s as part of their anti-fascist strategy to strike the heart of capitalism. It’s so detailed that they even have individual utility poles marked and how much weight each bridge can support in case they needed to move a column of tanks. They had to have sent out cartographers and trained geometers to get it this detailed.
