Law 2a: The map, not the territory (ratified 2026-07-18).

For every name there are two things: the actuality and the map of it. If the actuality is natural — the feeling, the plant, the sleep-state, the faculty — it is out of scope forever and no entry can claim it. But the MAP of it — the concept, the category, the framework humans built to pick it out, argue over it, and teach it — is a corporatum in full standing. **Every entry whose name points at something natural denotes the map, automatically and always.** The question "is fear made?" is never asked again: the kingdom contains only maps, and the entry named fear could not be the feeling. Consequences: (a) definitions of natural-referent entries must define the MAP — what the category picks out, where its boundaries are drawn and how they vary, how the map persists (language, teaching, disciplines); a definition that recites the territory's mechanics (neurology, physics, "a capacity for...") fails to carve and is struck (*establishing cases: dream, empathy, intelligence struck for territory-definitions; death, time, season accepted for map-definitions*). (b) Edges between such entries relate map to map: notes must argue the history and operation of the CONCEPTS, not the causality of the feelings. (c) The territory may be described inside a definition as what the map maps — described, never enrolled.
