This is a 1934 Norddeutscher Lloyd Bremen wall map of German settlements in southeastern South America. Coverage extends from Bolivia and the Matto Grosso in Brazil south to Bahia Blanca in Argentina, with a focus on the South American coast. Bold red lines in the Atlantic highlight Norddeutscher Lloyd Bremen's most traveled routes. Stops included Santa Catharina, Paraná, and Rio Grande do Sul, all regions popular with German immigrants. Cities, towns, and villages throughout are identified, with circles marking cities with German populations and squares marking cities without German populations. Little black boat icons appear next to cities where Norddeutscher Lloyd Bremen operated. (more details)
