<div id="ygrps-yiv-1510222634">of course no collection of perversity in boundaries would be <br/>
complete without at least acknowledging the northern boundary <br/>
of tennessee for honorable mention<br/>
<br/>
its two parts<br/>
tnva & kytn <br/>
as a whole <br/>
enjoy a much more complicated sort of waywardness <br/>
than the more limited mbsk & mdva exemplars <br/>
previously mentioned<br/>
<br/>
for this continuous tennessee north line<br/>
if it may be called that<br/>
is the combined product of no fewer than 4 surveys<br/>
made respectively in 1779 1803 1820 & 1858<br/>
each commissioned to simply continue the latitude of 36d30m<br/>
as previously established by the comparatively stable ncva line<br/>
but with each result somehow gone more awry than the previous<br/>
& of course the cherry atop it all is the kentucky bend exclave<br/>
