Why are teams from the same professional baseball league allowed to play each other in the World Series?
American Professional Baseball is made up into 2 divisions or leagues. After a season of play and a couple of weeks of playoffs the 2 leagues, the American and National send their champions to the World Series. Although called the World Series there are only American teams participating. The recent World baseball classic showed American baseball is not the only dominate team around.
Why does baseball have a competition called the World Series when only American teams play in it?
Because when the term was coined, The US WAS the world of baseball. ...and it's not just American teams (unless you're using the term "American" to refer to anyone from North America). Canada has the blue jays, and used to also have the Expos until they moved to Washington and became the Nationals in 2005. However, I believe that "World Series" is only used out of habit, and the "official" name of the championship series is actually now "The Fall Classic".

Why is the world series for baseball called the world series if it is just teams from North America playing?
The sport originated in North America. When it became time to declare a "champion" the big wigs who controlled baseball deemed it "world series" because at the time it was the only place where a professional series of baseball was played. The name just stuck ever since. At least now days the little league world series has it right!
