Volume_1 also contains a chronology of important events arranged both by year and by topic (for example, Literature and the Arts, War and Armed Conflict). In addition, each of the five volumes contains a set of nine maps, including ones depicting the Versailles Settlement, The Gulag at Its Zenith, and Post-1945 Europe. The text is complemented by black-and-white illustrations. Additionally, an eight-page section of color plates with a particular theme (for example, Popular Culture, Soviet Union and Communism) is contained in each volume. Finally, volume 5 has a detailed index, which facilitates access to the main text.
