The 1958 Forces Armees Royales Khmeres Pictorial Map of Cambodia is a captivating and intricately designed representation of the country. Gracing its surface is a prominent pictorial vignette showcasing the awe-inspiring Angkor Wat at its center, and another vignette featuring the charming cityscape of Phnom Penh in the lower right corner. Adding to its allure, the map is adorned with elegant illustrations depicting traditional Khmer dancers, temples, and other cultural emblems.

Rendered in the French language, the map meticulously labels an array of cities, towns, rivers, and roads, all while elegantly showcasing the geographical boundaries of Cambodia with its neighboring countries: Thailand, Laos, and Vietnam.

This remarkable cartographic masterpiece was crafted by the esteemed Service Géographique des Forces Armées Royales Khmères, the military mapping agency of Cambodia during that era. Its publication in 1958 coincided with a period of relative tranquility and stability within the nation.

Beyond its artistic merits, the 1958 Forces Armees Royales Khmeres Pictorial Map of Cambodia holds significant historical value, offering a precious glimpse into Cambodia during a time when the nation was still recovering from the devastating Khmer Rouge genocide.
