Of course it is more complicated than this map. Some nations belong to more than one bloc, but the map only shows a single (perhaps most relevant) membership. For example, Guyana and Suriname belong to both CARICOM and UNASUR. The map only shows UNASUR membership.
Blocs may also have not only full members, but associate members and observers.
The map's home page (see message below) has good leads to all these associations and more. If you want more info on any of them, it's a good place to start. It will also help you through the alphabet soup of abbreviations. (And yes, that changes from language to language...)
I told you it was more complicated than the map itself...
