I believe Voltron’s Holdings are 5 part (2 legs, 2 arms and body).
Ok, maybe 4 if you count that classic Voltron hurt picture.
In lobby for: Jaime Cevallos, Zack Lutz, orange unis and Rickroll as the 7th inning song.
The Unwritten Rules of AA
awesome, although im scared by the amount of disputed zone along the right field foul line.
does that all become Ikeland?
Hey, wait! I'm having one of those things. You know? A headache with pictures?

It most likely gets split between Paganistan, Ikeland, and Voltron's successor
The disputed territories are either shared between borders, or are possibly left uncovered (especially around Porchugal, which I forgot to designate)

Note: You can't steal a base by going through Aguayo Pass in The Terrible Kingdom, because you would get caught stealing - remember, all the base are belong to Frankie Cats. You just have to go through him first.
i hope we don't see too many balls hit to Porchugal while we're in the field

After the independence of the Beltranian Holdings
it will briefly be renamed Microfracturenesia, followed long term by either The Dudan or Fernandogascar.

Rec'd
but I somehow remember that the SW part of the map had a Thole Booth.

Hopefully
We don’t give away too many EZ-Passes this year. (Admittedly, thinking of a name for Thole’s territory was not easy)
I’ll consider the Thole booth, though

I can't rec this map since you left out the giant rock in the Beltranian Holdings

Oh, of course
How could I forget? Thanks for pointing that out – I’ll make the corrections now

The humor escapes me here
The giant rock represents the belief that durability is a virtue, even if it’s durable crap. Beltrania has exactly nothing to do with either side of that.
Might I suggest Bayruit instead of Barbaydos?

Or what about the Great South Bay?
He kind of slips around like he’s on water out there occasionally.

He's Canadian.
Has to the the Great South Bay.

LET'S GO RANGERS!!!
Once I finish my degree, I'll see what I can do about getting those disputed territories undisputed.

I get
“Isle of Lix”, but I would have gone with “Isle of Dickey”.
A baseball game is simply a nervous breakdown divided into nine innings.

Dickethiopia sounds great
I stuck to the convention of naming the mound after the “ace”, but if I decided to buck the trend, I would do that.
I think I will do that

I have made some changes
The map has been upgraded to version 2.0 – in case you want to compare the current and previous versions, I provided a link to version 1.0 of the map.
I also added the giant rock to the Beltranian Holdings, on Schmidtxc’s request
Yeah
Especially around Tholewood – I was hoping to not leave out any suggestions, though I might have to. I’m deciding, based on the popular vote. I also took a few of my own suggestions for changes, as well.
I guess the clutter around Tholewood/Dickethiopia makes sense, since that’s where much of the action takes place.
As long as you're talking suggestions
shouldn’t the Emausphere be to the 1B side of second base, not in the middle?
Save Jenrry Mejia!
It is
I actually derived the Citi Field map from the mets.com seating map, to ensure accuracy. The map borders at the foul line or fence, whichever comes first. The first territory I marked on the map was in fact the Emausphere, which just barely fits inside the infield dirt portion of the right side of 2B. I then worked from there.
Fun fact: I know this may be very OCD of me, but the Apple over at Center Field is shown exactly to scale and is at exactly the right position, on the map. (Why I do this, even I don’t know.)
The bullpen:
Bullpanama? It does, after all, separate the two different types of pitchers, starters and relievers.

I'm not sure if it'll fit seamlessly
Also, The bullpen seems to be more of an enclave than a territory. If I recall correctly however, the bullpen is directly to the left of Porchugal, so this could probably be arranged. The enclave will probably sport a name not directly affiliated with a nation-state. (i.e. Appleachian Mountains, instead of Applestonia – I know, terrible example)

Do you know the "tree house" rack in beerpong? (basically a pentagram if you're unfamiliar)
Well we always joke that houses in Estonia are just tree houses – except they are only feet off the ground and they’re made out of sticks. So us being the jackasses we are, call an upside down house-rack formation, an “Estonian tree-house”. Also, according to us, Estonia’s main export is rocks.
Save Jenrry Mejia!
