Not as nice as the real thing, of course:

That's quite good, but I prefer the post-WW1 Empire maps, with the Cape linked to Cairo and the Middle Eastern Empire linking Cairo through Jerusalem and the Transjordan to Iraq and thence through southern Iran (informal empire rather than official colony) to India and thence through Burma and Malaya to Singapore. It looks more imperial!
