I have an application where I need to show historical maps. Is there a way to use the Google API for that, ie show a map of Europe for the year 1800, 1900 etc, with different borders and country names?
I am not particular to any language and also welcome solutions that might not involve the Google API but another library or service
I am not aware about such functionality in Google Maps right now. However, it should be noted that Google Earth has several historical maps (including a world map from 1790, a 1833 US map, a 1680 map of Tokyo, and a 1716 map of Paris), so chances are they will add this functionality to Google Maps at some point in the future.
