Europa nach den lebenden Sprachen
A rough-ink remake of Karl von Ausfeld's 1840 plateEuropa nach den lebenden Sprachen — Europe tinted by living language families. The countries are still real map shapes you can hover, keyboard-navigate, and read in a data table. Only the ink is rough: hand-tinted hachure in the spirit of a copperplate, without inventing new borders.

How the rough plate is built
resolveReferenceGeography("world-110m") supplies Natural Earth borders; prepareEuropaFeatures keeps the Europe-centered plate and attaches a language-family leaf color. StreamGeoFrame projects withprojectionExtent so the view locks to the historical frame.renderMode is a function that returns a single memoizedcreateRoughRenderMode({ fillStyle: "hachure", seed: 1840 })for geoarea nodes only — points, decoration, and tooltips stay on the default renderer. Geometry, selection, and accessibility never pass through Rough.js.
