Bourbonnais was a historic province in the centre of France that corresponds to the modern département of Allier, along with part of the département of Cher.

A second edition of all three parts was published 1602. 1604 Jodocus Hondius acquired the plates and published several edition together with his sons Jodocus II and Henricus until 1633.
