The varying cartographic content is depicted on a single print from the same black-printed copper plate through additions in colored line drawings and watercolors. The legend, produced using letterpress printing—often in two colors—is pasted along the wide lower margin. Due to this labor-intensive process, only a few copies could be produced.

Military installations and military administrative institutions; 5. Deployment of the standing army; 6. Facilities and institutions for transportation; 7. Judicial administration; 8. Customs and tax administration; 9. Administration of Mines, Smelters, and Salt Works; 10. Salt Production; 11. Protestant Church Constitution; 12. Catholic Church Constitution; 13. Ratio of Population to Land Area (Population Density); 14. Religious and denominational composition of the population; 15. Languages; 16.
