# Madras Presidency

**Madras Presidency** was an administrative subdivision (presidency) of British India. At its greatest extent, the presidency included most of southern India, including the whole of the Indian states of Tamil Nadu and Andhra Pradesh and parts of Odisha, Kerala, Karnataka, Telangana, and the union territory of Lakshadweep. The city of Madras was the winter capital of the Presidency and Ootacamund or Ooty, the summer capital. The island of Ceylon was a part of Madras Presidency from 1793 to 1798 when it was created a Crown colony.

In the early decades of the 20th century, many significant contributors to the Indian independence movement came from Madras. After India got its independence Madras Prescidency became Madras State and later renamed as Tamil Nadu during C.N.Annadurai's reign as the chief minister.

In 1822, the Madras Presidency underwent its first census, which returned a population of 13,476,923.The last census of British India held in 1941 counted a population of 49,341,810 for the Madras Presidency.According to the 1871 census, there were 14,715,000 people who spoke Tamil, 11,610,000 people who spoke Telugu, 2,324,000 people who spoke Malayalam, 1,699,000 spoke Canarese or Kannada, 640,000 people spoke Oriya and 29,400 people spoke Tulu.
# Cartography

**Cartography** is making maps. It is part of geography. How people make maps is always changing. In the past, maps were drawn by hand, but today most printed maps are made using computers and people usually see maps on computer screens. Someone who makes maps is called a cartographer.

Making a map can be as simple as drawing a direction on a napkin, or as complicated as showing a whole country or world. Anyone can make a map, but cartographers spend their lives learning how to make better maps.

For many centuries maps were usually carefully drawn onto paper or parchment. Now they are made on a computer which makes them look neater with accurate images.

Maps are of two main types:

* General maps with a variety of features.
* Thematic maps with particular themes for specific audiences.

General maps are produced in a series. Governments produce them in larger-scale and smaller-scale maps of great detail.

Thematic maps are now very common. They are necessary to show spatial, cultural and social data.

# Magazine

Magazines at a newsstand
A **magazine** is a type of book people read. Magazines differ from books because a new issue of the magazine is printed many times each year with new contents. Magazines are a type of periodical. They are called periodicals because editions are published at a fixed frequency. Magazines are similar to newspapers, but usually the time between new issues is longer. Each copy of a magazine costs more money than a newspaper, and many are in color on every page. Sometimes magazines come with little gifts to reward the readers who buy it.

Magazines are printed on paper. Many people subscribe to them so every issue will be delivered. Others buy them at a newsstand or elsewhere. An example of a magazine is *Time*. There are magazines about many things. Magazines often feature articles, advertisements, and photographs that focus on specific topics like fashion, technology, or entertainment.
