so at tin bigha you are apparently getting more than 11 bighas for the price of 3<br/>

&gt; so first of all <br/>
&gt; can you name any of her 3 remaining good neighbor<br/>
&gt; states <br/>
&gt; before peeking at this map<br/>

&gt; <br/>
&gt; & for extra credit<br/>
&gt; since a bengali bigha is 1600 square yards<br/>
&gt; & tin bigha measures 178 by 85 meters or about 18098<br/>
&gt; square yards<br/>
&gt; does the tin in tin bigha just mean roughly ten or so<br/>
&gt; <br/>
&gt; or does it just mean something else<br/>
&gt; like for example tin <br/>
&gt; exactly as it says<br/>
&gt; for some reason<br/>
&gt; <br/>
&gt; or what does it mean anyway<br/>
&gt; <br/>
&gt; & if so why<br/>
&gt; <br/>
