Enclaves, exclaves, and unusual borders

Exclaves that create borders

Azerbaijan reaches Turkey through the Nakhchivan exclave. Russia's Kaliningrad exclave borders Poland and Lithuania, while Spain's North African territories create an accepted Spain to Morocco connection in Geodle.

Countries inside countries

San Marino and Vatican City are enclosed by Italy. Lesotho is entirely surrounded by South Africa. These arrangements create simple but strategically important route bottlenecks.
