The map depicts a part of the Croatian Littoral (Senj–Karlobag route) and central Lika, with the road network and a part of the Josephina road, the Senj–Jezerane route. The Josephina road, which was 113 km long and named after the Holy Roman emperor Joseph II, was built from 1770 to 1779, with the basic goal of connecting the towns Karlovac and Senj via Duga Resa, Generalski Stol, Josipdol, Jezerane, Brinje, and the Vratnik pass on Mount Velebit.
