Exclave

(exclave)





C is B's exclave, and A's enclave.

An exclave is a territory that belongs to a political entitybut is not connected to it and is surrounded by other political entities. A good example is the region around the Russian city Kaliningrad . It belongs to the RussianFederation , but is separated from the rest of that country by territory belonging to Lithuania , Latvia and Belarus .

Although both meanings are close, an exclave may not necessarily be an enclave . Kaliningrad is surrounded not by one state only, but by two: Lithuania and Poland and it also borders the Baltic Sea . On the other hand, the Spanish exclave of Llívia is a French enclave.

Another example of an exclave is the Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic .

Examples of exclaves in subnational units include the traditional counties of Flintshire , Wales and Cromartyshire , Scotland , in the United Kingdom .
