tidore and ternate questions ?

[Trin Tragula]

Ternate and Tidore islands are too small to be in the game and so PDX rightly decided to paint other major islands under their control.

Uli Lima is Ternate, Uli Siwa is Tidore.

This is indeed why things are the way they are

 

[Trin Tragula]

Instead of painting Ternate and Tidore on false island, I think it would be better to enlarge those islands like what Paradox have done with several islands like Hormuz and Christmas...

The real life ones are so small I am not sure we could enlarge them in a meaningful way without seriously distorting the region, instead we choose to color in other islands under their control.
You should probably also take another look at Hormuz as we did something similar there.
