A new map of India & China from the latest observations [cartographic material] /

Map of India, China and Southeast Asia.

Similarly, such information on coastal China, Japan, Indonesia and Malaysia came from the Dutch, who still dominated trade from these lands while the inland details of these nations was primarily derived from the missionary efforts of the Jesuits.
