Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Facts About Cuba: Published Under the Authority of the New York Cuban Junta Situation. - Cuba is the largest and most fertile of the West Indies; it is situated between 19° 49´ and 23° 13´ North latitude, and 74° 6´ and 89° 59´ West longitude from Greenwich. Area. - The Island, on a straight line from East to West, is about six hundred geographical miles long; in width from North to South, varies from 21 to 135 miles. Territorial Division. - The Island was divided by the Spanish Government into three large departments: the Western, Central, and Eastern. These departments were subdivided into 32 districts or jurisdictions, and the latter into partidos, of which there were 166 in all. Notwithstanding this, the people are accustomed to denominate the territories into which they consider the Island divided, as follows: Vuelta Abajo, the portion embraced from the meridian of Havana to Cape San Antonio, the western extremity of the Island; Vuelta Arriba, from the meridian of Havana toward the East as far as Cienfuegos; Las Cinco Villas, from the meridian of Cienfuegos to that of Sancti-Spiritus; Tierra Adentro, from that of Sancti-Spiritus to that of Holguin, toward the East.
