Yes, Panem is a busted setting. Now 2000AD's Cursed Earth, that's some primo post-(post-)apocalyptic dystopia

So whats the big white areas? Places where shits just normal but no one goes there because its not fun?

Pretty much, general non-irradiated wasteland. Pockets of holdouts/LMEs, wandering mutants, plant life reclaiming the land, generic fall-of-civilization stuff.

I got a laugh out of Ireland being renamed "Murphyville" on that map, I'm sure it's supposed to be named after someone in the future or have a valid in-universe reason, but it sounds like some sort of slur that they straight up embraced, or the fictitious map maker has some sort of grudge.

"Here's Geneva, here's Casablanca, and up there we have goddamn Murphyville and the Brit Cit." lol

It basically is a slur, in the post-atomic period the Brits took over the remaining Irish government and turned all the non-irradiated land into a hideously stereotypical theme park where the locals have to act like 19th-century caricatures of themselves to get by.

Most of this was written by Garth Ennis, everyone's favorite handler of delicate racial and social issues.
