Hello,

while browsing the map of Croatia, I’ve realized that the town
Slavonski Brod (120 miles east of Zagreb) is not shown anywhere on the
map until you zoom in all the way and then it shows itself under the
town Bosanski Brod, which is a Bosnian city.

These towns are border line towns placed on the coast of river Sava
and they are not one town, but two towns and they differ in many
things - size, people, language, currency, etc.. Also, on the map,
Bosanski Brod is shown like it was a Croatian city (the name is on the
Croatian territory), but on that place should be name Slavonski Brod,
and Bosanski Brod beneath it on the Bosnian side of territory (south
from river Sava). Not to mention that Slavonski Brod is approximately
twice the size of Bosanski Brod and has about 3 times more people, so
it should be more accentuaded and visible on the map even if the
measurment liner show 50mil diameter.

Surrounding villages of Slavonski Brod are clearly visible on the map
when zoomed 50%, but the city itself is not shown.

I sincerely hope that you will take my observation in consideration
and make a correction on the map.

Someone who don’t know the area can easily think of Bosanski Brod as a
Croatian city, which can be very offensive for some Croatians.

Thank you in advance,
Ivan
