If you expand the map to the south and east, your original objects stay at their place, you "just" have to populate your "new" landmass.
Got this pb when making the merge of kuban and crimea (work never published, finished at 85%, but looking soo much better than the one that appeared some years ago, without all the objects bugs and all the textures displaced...yeah, i congratulate myself ), to respect the allignment of the 2 land masses, had to add some new terrain to the north on crimea and kuban, and to replace the original objects, i saved several files (large cities, small cities, villages) and done some copy paste with the repositioning in zoom mode) several hours work but it worked.
