As we’ve mentioned ad nauseam this map shows the three regions in tonal harmony: The Tonic (our home), the Sub-dominant (shown as the mountain region) and the Dominant (represented by a boat on a rough sea) These 3 regions are always present in any tonal piece and the functions are always located in the same place.

So if we view the tonal harmony map functionally, we can see the I and iv belong to the tonic region in the major key, the Im the bIII and the vim7b5 are the tonic functions in a minor key. Remember the map shows major and minor keys simultaneously since composers often borrow chords from the minor mode when in major and. Sometimes vice-versa.
