I have memory that there was a version of the Charted Space map that showed a small state to the trailing of the Two Thousand Worlds, I've checked the earliest version I have (1981), but it does not seem to be on that one, does anyone know when this first appeared and in which version of Traveller?

No map that I'm aware of has any states out there, other than the two tiny exile states now present in Nuughe on TravellerMap. Very few maps get out that far, which is why that whole region didn't even have dot maps until recently. Even the next column of sectors beyond Gateway is all but non-existent beyond the Alien modules and Redline Charted Space map of olde in official print.

Maybe you are thinking of the GURPS inclusion of the Inheritors, out at the trailing edge of Nooq?
