Your map was not part of the treaty.

It does not match the description of text, including Western southern boundary midway between Attou Island and Copper Island of the Kormandorski couplet.

How does the treaty show Copper Island to be in the US when the treaty clearly drew the line midway between Copper and Attou?

The same happens at the North. Read the text of what you posted. It is true. But the map is something made up.

That's right it isn't! but it matches up with your map.

It most certainly does match the description below it!

The meridian of 193 degrees west (167 degrees east) runs directly between Bering and Copper Islands. Why have you displayed maps without the proper markings?

So the map included in The Agreement Between the United States of America and the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics On the Maritime Boundary, with Annex, Signed at Washington, June 1, 1990 is something made up?
