To set the stage for this French history book here‘s a map of Europe in the 1200s. #foodandljt #France @Catsandbooks @Butterfinger

Catsandbooks Love a map! 2y
GingerAntics Love a map. Love what is now English, Wales, Scotland, and Ireland just hanging out there on their own, minding their own business, hardly involved at all. (edited) 2y
