The maps of India site does not show the enclaves, but<br/>
as an approximate area, go to the district map of West<br/>
Bengal, find Cooch Behar.  It is near the western<br/>
portion of the district.  You will need to most likely<br/>
find a paper map of the area to truly see the<br/>
enclaves.  Even then, many small ones will not show<br/>
up.  The best place to find census handbooks if you<br/>
have any.<br/>

I don&#39;t really consider any of the territories (you<br/>
forgot Mayotte and Wallis & Futuna, i believe) of<br/>
French to be integral parts, so not enclaves.  Then<br/>
again, I have not really done a history of them.  The<br/>
overseas departments have a little too much autonomy<br/>
in my mind, if you ask me.  And even if they were<br/>
integral parts, I wouldn&#39;t call any except St Pierre<br/>
as enclaves, as I find it just easier to just define<br/>
the different type of oddities to explain to others<br/>
without much verbosity.  It just gets confusing if we<br/>
start calling fragments and tongues as enclaves.  Just<br/>
because I don&#39;t call them exclaves does not mean they<br/>
are not interesting.<br/>
