Nuh-uh! In reality, it's triangular. It was just made to appear squared because that's what we're led to believe!

Why does everyone ask this? Nooo, we live in an alternate universe where the Flat Earth Society is right and we're a block with a few stalagmites under it, hurdling through space.

there's a great animation called Flat Earth...or Flat World, yes Flat World. There's 2 sides of the world, a television world where anything happens like in TV, and 'real' world. It's amasing because it exploits the concept to the max, for example, the cars are made from paper cut with car shape...

sorry for off topic...seemed appropriate. that's why we need a CINEMA BOARD.

The Taijitu map as currently constructed is understood as being part of a world.  Yes, you could reach the other side of the map by sailing off the border and around the world, but there are several problems with this.  First, the world is a big place, and if you try to circumnavigate it any conflict would probably be over before you could reach it in this manner.  Second, the other areas of the world belong to other regions, and they will use all the IGNORE power they've got to prevent you from sailing/flying/marching through their territory.

I'll make a scale tonight... if you want to travel off the map you have to tell me because if you go east you won't wind up on the west side of the map.... There's more to this map!

Thanks for your hardwork Oz!

So how big does the map get? It's gonna be hard to set up trade if we can only go in one direction...
