Administrative subdivisions errors

The map of the emirates of the UAE under "government" seems to misrepresent a couple of things. 1) Though an area on the Oman border is represented as under joint Omani-Ajman control, there is no evidence of this. Hadf over the border in Oman was formerly a condominium of Ajman and Oman, but appears not to have been since the 80s. There is no source anywhere that I can see indicating that this is jointly controlled. 2) There is no evidence that the area marked as under joint Fujairah-Sharjah control is in fact a condominium. Arabic-language pages of a village within the area suggest it is simply owned by Fujairah. Please could somebody with edit permissions correct these errors and use a different map, or else explain why these supposed condominia are on the map? ~2025-42420-65 (talk) 19:35, 23 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
