In  the Old days...Many Nations did not have much distingtion to mark there borders on maps cause it was difficult to put an exact borderline in each nation....the old methods to do so to mark each nation's territory and influence was to use land marks such as mountains, rivers and forest to mark them.

If in the Future you are planning on perhaps making borderlines for each nation. here is some kind of guide. The Baharuth Empire and The Re-Estize Kingdom more or less used the Azerlia Mountain range to mark there borders. Since we also now that The Forest of Tob and Carne Village as well Nazericks tomb are in the kingdoms Territory. Than u can mark halfway across the mountain range than right around the edges of the forest tob until u reach E-Rental which acts as the frontier city of Re-Estize before crossing the border of the Slane Theocracy and Baharuth.

The Southern Mountain Range can be used to dive both the Slane and Re-Estize borders all the way of the west side of the whole mountain range until it reaches the western sea. As for the borders for the Baharuth all of the land in the east oof the mountains and all the land until it reaches teh border for the north sea belongs to the bahruth empire...now as to mark the area for the south. The Katze Plains is a piece of land that nobody owned...it was just a battle ground so u can mark the borders of the baharuth in the south by going along the katze plains until u reach the north end of the south east mountains. all along the edges of those mountains should be as far as the extend of the empire's territory.

The Agrada Council;s borders are basically all the land in the north of the Re-Estize which are the areas that border the north east mountains and beyond which should be easy to mark. just as the as the Roble Holy kingdom's Territory is marked by the 10,000 mile wall all land behind simply belongs to them.

As for the Slane Theocracies border all of the land in the south of the map until it reaches the border of the mountains west of E-rental belong to them. there borders in the east are marked until they reach the katze plains which than goes around it until it reaches the border of the west side of the south east mountains all the way down until it reaches the edge of the southern sea. the little glimpse we see of it on the map.

As for the Dragonic Kingdom. it's territory lies behind the southern mountains all the wat up to the fort that borders the north of the southern mountains and goes beyond the map from there.

The Dwarfs kingdom does not have any real borders on the map since the majority lies within the mountains underground save for a few mountains most likely.

As for the Beastman nation it;s territory lies beyond the map somewhere either in the eastern or south of the dragonic kingdom which it too has territory that goes beyond the map.

Also to keep you informed The Forest of Tob does not represent the whole shaded are that surrounds the Azerlia mountains just the part that starts at the south in the east side all the way up to the great lake..as for the rest of it...they are basically other shaded territories that represetn different forests with different names or different land types.

As of Volume 9: Nazerick controls all of the territory within the Forest of Tob, Carne Village and E-Rental, The Katze plains was noone's territory since it was unwanted land cause of the many undead that spawn there...but since it's usefull land for Ainz for formentioned reason he took the claim of it anyway since nobody else wanted it.

Hope this helps.
