EDIT: I misread the map (it's Japan, not Juden; the small font had me confused). Still very racist, but not in the way I initially thought.

He's not pointing it at the Jews (which would be "Juden"), he's pointing it at Japan, which stays the same in German.
It would hardly be the first time you had Poles shooting Jews. Really though, it would be like having a picture with a Russian from the time period beating up a Jewish man. Hardly uncommon, so it doesn't count as an irony. It is funny though how the Poles and Magyars deal with the bears while the Austrian shoots into a pig pen.
I love how the Ottomans are represented by Anatolia just turning into a guy with a beard and a sword. Also they apparently lost Trebizond, and it seems that they accidentally cut off most of the Levant with that scimitar.
Also, there are a lot more of that kind of map here: https://journals.openedition.org/belgeo/11935?lang=de

For some reason one of the worst things about this to me is that it calls the Bimini Road Cuban when it’s actually in the Bahamas.
HOW DARE YOU! This forum is for maps which are incorrect! Why are you posting a factual historical map here?
