At the beginning of the 19th century, following the works of others in the previous century, Janos Lipszky (1766-1826), a Hungarian hussar officer, compiled and published, in print the first complete general map of the Hungarian Empire (Mappa generalis regni Hungariae, (1804-1808), together with the complete index of all settlements and other geographical names in it (Repertorium, 1808), and an overview map (Tabula generalis regni Hungariae, 1810). Even now, researchers favor Janos Lipszky's map for its unprecedented completeness and accuracy, while people fond of beautiful maps find it aesthetically pleasing to browse. Due to the map's great interest, complete copies are available almost exclusively in public collections.
