but if this isnt to be just more apples & oranges
you will also have to pretend that either france or the netherlands
is a legally divided island country
just as jesper is pretending cuba is
for you have clipped & spaced out the original question
& have resorted to freestyle associative response
of course this is ok
especially since we are only pretending in this case anyway
but international islands are actually quite common
& international islands in matched pairs & even larger groups
tho a bit less common
are not really rare either
but so far as i know
only borneo & new guinea could qualify as legally divided
islands of an island country
namely indonesia
& international cases like these probably dont occur anywhere
as topologically identical twins
such as i believe jesper meant to inspire with the would be
example of cuba & company
