i think that you are right on about the word enclave<br/>
but that the word exclave is without reference to whatever surrounds it<br/>
& probably nowhere reaches 3 surrounding entities anyway<br/>
  or perhaps someone can find such a case<br/>
<br/>
i know i am picking nits<br/>
but i know you like it that way too<br/>

&gt; &gt; I&#39;m new to this group.  What is an enclave?<br/>
&gt;<br/>
&gt;A bit of territory entirely surrounded by some other state, as the<br/>
&gt;Vatican city-state is surrounded by the Italian Republic; but usually we<br/>
&gt;mean a piece detached from its parent state; examples include<br/>
&gt;<br/>
&gt;- numerous bits of India and Bangladesh, clustered<br/>
&gt;    along the northernmost part of their border<br/>
&gt;- Iordan, Uzbekistan, surrounded by Kyrgyzstan<br/>
&gt;- (formerly) West Berlin<br/>
&gt;- Baarle-Hertog, Belgium, surrounded by Baarle-Nassau, Netherlands<br/>
&gt;    (and that&#39;s simplifying it!)<br/>
&gt;- Buesingen, Germany, surrounded by Switzerland<br/>
&gt;- Llivia, Spain, surrounded by France<br/>
&gt;<br/>
&gt;I&#39;m not entirely sure, but believe an &quot;exclave&quot; is a detached piece<br/>
&gt;surrounded by two or more other states, like<br/>
&gt;<br/>
&gt;- Nakhichevan, Azeri territory, between Armenia and Iran<br/>
&gt;- the westernmost bit of Kentucky, between Missouri and Tennessee<br/>
&gt;<br/>
&gt;or (more often) by a foreign state(s) and water, as<br/>
&gt;<br/>
&gt;- Cabinda, separated from Angola by Congo<br/>
&gt;- the northernmost bit of Oman, separated by UAE<br/>
&gt;- Kaliningrad (East Prussia), Russia, on the Baltic<br/>
&gt;    between Poland and Lithuania<br/>
&gt;- Campione, Italy, on Lake Lugano, bounded on land by Switzerland<br/>
&gt;- Ceuta, Spain, on the Morocco shore<br/>
&gt;- the Northwest Angle, Minnesota<br/>
&gt;- Point Roberts, Washington<br/>
&gt;<br/>
&gt;<br/>
&gt;Of course, e[nx]claves can occur at other levels.  The western Swiss<br/>
&gt;cantons are especially fragmented.  O&#39;Hare Airport is an exclave of<br/>
&gt;telephone area 773, bounded by 630 and 847 (it was kept with central<br/>
&gt;Chicago in the split of 1989).<br/>
