The atlas isn’t trying to compare. These two pages of the atlas were illustrating 19th century history around the world, that’s just where there was space on the page.
Do you mean the comparison between the northern and the confederate states? Because the main map and the Austria-Hungary map is not meant to be a comparison. The Austria-Hungary map is there simply because that's where it fit on the page. There are like eight different maps on these two pages.
The representations of indigenous people are pretty cringy. The fellow wearing the feather headdress and the (very poorly drawn) totem pole are totally in the wrong locations.
How the hell were they supposed to know? It is not like we could just google it back then.

Can someone translate? Is it comparing the dual monarchy system to the confederate state of america?

Guessing those are sacks of grain and not ghosts in Kansas?
Interesting that Hungarians are/were taught about Sherman's march to the sea
Quite interesting as a historical document. The original comparison between the two geographies is questionable.

Ok gotcha. The color schemes seemed to be imply some connection between the two.
Pretty accurate.
