From what I can see in your code you are zooming on the latlng variable that you declared above. That is correct. You myOptions variable is then passed into your new maps declaration.
So you should be centered on 51.285583, 1.091045, which is Caterbury Kent in the UK.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
