<div id="ygrps-yiv-2081933647">I&#39;ve just uploaded a file called Perfs&Frags.xls to the files area.<br/>
It&#39;s a two-sheet workbook containing my first attempt to list all the <br/>
national bits and pieces that make up the world at the EEZ level.<br/>
I look at 193 countries (I&#39;ve included East Timor). Most of them <br/>
coalesce into single cohesive units surrounded by land borders and <br/>
Exclusive Economic Zones: I don&#39;t list these. <br/>
Some of them are perforated by bits of other countries, or by areas <br/>
of high seas within their EEZ: these are listed on the &quot;Perforations&quot; <br/>
sheet (22 countries with 267 perforations).<br/>
Others are found to consist of a parent unit and several detached <br/>
bits and pieces: these bits and pieces are listed on the &quot;Fragments&quot; <br/>
sheet (33 countries with 324 fragments).<br/>
The information on Indian/Bangladeshi exclaves is the latest I have <br/>
from Brendan.<br/>
Inevitably I&#39;ll have messed up somewhere, so all comments are welcome.<br/>
