 * 25) Montenegro (Principality of Zeta). The territory which today belongs to Montenegro is presented like it was acquired in period 1451-1481. The articles about Montenegro and its precedent (the Principality of Zeta) explain that they became part of OE in 1499, which is after the period 1451-1481 presented in this map.

Second list

 * 1)  Adriatic coast. Map does not present an important strip of territory on Adriatic sea (today that is only part of Adriatic Sea that belongs to Bosnia and Herzegovina) which was ceded to the Ottoman Empire by Dubrovnik in 18th century. Dubrovnik article confirms that claim. There also sources which support such claim:
 * 2) The maritime boundaries of the Adriatic Sea By Gerald Henry Blake, Duško Topalović, Clive H. Schofield p. 34 : "The total length of this Bosnia-Hercegovina coast is 21.2km, but since the coastline is shaped like the letter 'Z', ... has been an integral part of Bosnia since 1700 when it was ceded by the Republic of Dubrovnik to the Ottoman Empire."
