"The Blue Terror"

Description:
Cholera was an epidemic not only within the narrative, but in most colonized states at this time. The lack of clean resources and proper sanitization made the local indigenous populations primarily susceptible. Pictured here is a lithograph that reveals the racial biases the Empire held about this disease.
