Side panels on either side of the map display the figures of an Hungarian Senator, Gentleman, Citizen and Countryman and their respective female partners. The Hungarian coat of arms appears top centre. Extends from the Danube and Vienna in the North to the line of the river Sava in the South with Zagreb and Belgrade shown lower left and right respectively.
