The map "Regnum Borussiae Gloriosis auspicijs Serenissimi e Potentissimi Princip Friderici III. Primi Borussiae Regis March et. Elect. Brandenburg inauguratum die 18 Jan A. 1701," was created by Johann Baptist Homann.

Johann Baptist Homann (1664-1724) was a prominent German geographer and cartographer who founded a well-known mapmaking and publishing company in Nuremberg, Germany.

The map depicts the inauguration of Frederick I (Frederick III in Prussia) as the first King in Prussia on January 18, 1701. This was a significant event in the history of Prussia, as it marked the elevation of the Brandenburg Electorate to a kingdom. The map likely illustrates the newly established Kingdom of Prussia under Frederick I's rule, with various geographical features, boundaries, and cartographic details relevant to that period.

Johann Baptist Homann (1664-1724) was a renowned German cartographer, geographer, and map publisher. He is particularly known for his prolific output of maps and atlases during the early 18th century. Homann founded one of the most influential map publishing companies in Germany, the Homann Heirs, based in Nuremberg. The company continued to thrive even after Homann's death, and it played a significant role in shaping European cartography.

Homann's maps were distinguished by their high level of detail, accuracy, and decorative elements. His works covered a wide range of geographical areas, including Europe, Asia, Africa, and the Americas. He also produced celestial maps and globes, contributing significantly to the scientific and geographic knowledge of his time.
