Is it? Maybe once upon a time, but now...

That seems naive to ask: If they are not profitable, why keep them active?

Got it, thank you so much! Any plans on reducing the fee for territories?)

How much a territory can earn per month

> If I'm looking at this graph right, then the total zaps per month are somewhere around 100-110k sats.

That's the graph for individual zaps. It counts how many times the zap button is pressed. The amount of sats zapped is in the `spending` graph:

So the amount zapped per month is actually between 2.5m and 4.5m sats.

> So we have 20+ territories, all sharing the total income of 100k, while spending 50k per month each? Or what am I missing?

You're missing post fees as a source of revenue (1-2m sats per month).

But even with these corrected numbers your implied conclusion is still correct: most territories are not turning a profit.
