DB/WorldMapArea

Used to create the zones on the overhead world map. If your mouse falls inside one of the defined boxes... you're looking at that zone. Assumed to be layered based upon ID (ie If Mulgore overlaps Durotar, Mulgore has a higher ID, so Mulgore will come up instead of Durotar).

The Virtual Map ID (see below) is used for zones such as Exodar or Silvermoon, which resides in a map and are virtually shown in another. You see Exodar in map 1 (Kalimdor) in-game, while it is really in map 530 (Outland). Virtual map id is -1 when the Map ID is always correct.
