This map image could be re-created using vector graphics as an SVG file. This has several advantages; see Commons:Media for cleanup for more information. If an SVG form of this image is available, please upload it and afterwards replace this template with {{vector version available|new image name}}.


It is recommended to name the SVG file “Mediterranean Rupelian.svg”—then the template Vector version available (or Vva) does not need the new image name parameter.

Summary

Description
English: Paleogeography of the Mediterrenean region during the Rupelian age (33.9 - 28.4 million years ago). The Tethys Ocean between Africa and Europe is closing. Paratethys gets separated from Tethys by the formation of the Alps, Carpathians, Dinarides, Taurus and Elburz mountains (all Alpine orogeny). Black lines indicate present day coastlines.
