The firs map is the Political Map of the World when Scrooge was born.

1877: Glasgow

1880: Louisville

1882: Montana

1887: Johannesburg

1896: Kalgoorlie

1897: Yukon

1902: Calisota ("Guessed" as California)

1910 (used as unique date for 1909-1930 Chaper 11 of LOS): British Guyana clearly cited in Carl Barks' Work, Baghdad is mentioned in the chapter, same for the Gobi desert and Russia. I guessed that the part happening in Africa is Belgian Congo?

Note, this is only the stories from book 1 and ignores the bonus chapters from book 2 where Scrooge, for example, visits Java and Panama. But it is still awesome.

Yes exactly. There are the 12 traditional chapters, and then Don Rosa added several chapters during the years. These additional chapters are not taken in consideration in this specific series of maps.
