‎The atlas is based on the survey carried out by Count Joseph Ferraris in the late 1760s. On the ""Tableau d'Assemblage"" the last map concerning Belgium is no. 65 (Luxembourg) and also the last map here, not in accordance with the mentioning of 69 on the title-page.According to Shirley ""Maps in the Atlases of the British Library"" (T.CAP-1a) the atlas should include 4 sheets covering Belgium on a smaller scale (numb. 66-69), they are not present here, but having all the regional maps.‎
