whoops, i get 196, inc taiwan but not palestine.
So 150odd unlandlocked.
I must have been thinking of political entities, including offshore

While doubly and triply landlocked are certain, the landlocked and
unlandlocked start to get subjective. Does the Hutt River Principality
count, as it's another landlocked one if so.
And I meant Bangladeshi enclaves not Pakistani of course.
