Areas that are solid color are intended to represent approximate areas of occupation, with the exception of New Spain (most of which was not involved in this conflict) and areas with competing claims that were the source of conflict in the war. It does not depict all claimed lands, which were generally much larger, and were also the subject of competing claims which were not actively contested in the war. Areas with conflicting claims are depicted with color gradation, and may or may not be occupied by either side.
Many of the European land claims (those shown as well as those omitted) also intersect lands claimed by Native Americans, which are also not shown.
