I think that there was talk here at BP of BEDENL being a quintipoint
for a short period of time, when Neutral Moresnet was still not
incorporated into Belgium, but the Eupen area was, so that two areas
of Belgium met at this point, embracing Neutral Moresnet. Has this
ever been proven or refuted?
If the small segment of the circle at BEDENL represents Neutral
Moresnet, as I believe it does, then the Eupen area (Neu Moresnet
former municipality) falls into the German segment!
Or does this segment include Neutral Moresnet (=Kelmis former
municipality) AND Neu Moresnet?

this site suggest an unnamed division of land .Is this Moresnet?
