A pene-enclave can also exist entirely on land, such as when intervening mountains render a territory inaccessible from other parts of a country except through alien territory. A commonly cited example is the [[Kleinwalsertal]], a valley part of [[Vorarlberg]], Austria, that is only accessible from Germany to the north. ==Origin and usage== The word ''enclave'' is French and first appeared in the mid-15th century as a derivative of the verb ''enclaver'' (1283), from the colloquial Latin ''inclavare'' (to close with a key).<ref name="LGR">Le Grand Robert, Dictionnaire de la langue française, 2001, vol.III, p. 946.</ref> Originally, it was a term of property law that denoted the situation of a land or parcel of land surrounded by land owned by a different owner, and that could not be reached for its exploitation in a practical and sufficient manner without crossing the surrounding land.<ref name="LGR"/> In law, this created a ''servitude''<ref>''Servitude: '''Law'''. A right possessed by one person with respect to another's property, consisting either of a right to use the other's property, or a power to prevent certain uses of it''. Webster's, p. 1304.</ref> of passage for the benefit of the owner of the surrounded land. The first diplomatic document to contain the word ''enclave'' was the [[Treaty of Madrid (1526)|Treaty of Madrid]], signed in 1526.<ref name="Melamid">{{cite news|first=Alexander|last= Melamid|title=Enclaves and Exclaves|work=International Encyclopedia of the Social Sciences|volume=5|year= 1968|editor-first= David| editor-last= Sills| publisher=The Macmillan Company & Free Press}}</ref>{{rp|61}} Later, the term enclave began to be used also to refer to parcels of countries, counties, fiefs, communes, towns, parishes, etc. that were surrounded by alien territory. This French word eventually entered the English and other languages to denote the same concept although local terms have continued to be used. In India, the word "pocket" is often used as a synonym for enclave (such as "the pockets of Puducherry district").<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.jobresultsnic.in/2014/12/bsnl-recruitment-2014-2015-apply-for.html |title=Government Jobs in BSNL : 01 Jobs Opening |publisher=jobresultsnic.in |date= |accessdate=2014-02-24 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20141224165814/http://www.jobresultsnic.in/2014/12/bsnl-recruitment-2014-2015-apply-for.html |archivedate=2014-12-24 |df= }}</ref> In British administrative history, subnational enclaves were usually called '''detachments''' or '''detached parts''', and national enclaves as '''detached districts''' or '''detached dominions'''.<ref>As can be seen on 18th. century maps of Germany and other European countries by British cartographers and publishers such as R. Wilkinson.</ref> In English [[ecclesiology|ecclesiastic]] history, subnational enclaves were known as '''peculiars''' (see also [[Royal Peculiar]]).

For example, in the [[feudal system]] in Europe, the ownership of feudal domains was often transferred or partitioned, either through purchase and sale or through inheritance, and often such domains were or came to be surrounded by other domains. In particular, this state of affairs persisted into the 19th century in the [[Holy Roman Empire]], and these domains (principalities, etc.) exhibited many of the characteristics of sovereign states. Prior to 1866 Prussia alone consisted of more than 270 discontiguous pieces of territory.<ref name="Melamid"/>{{rp|61}} Residing in an enclave within another country has often involved difficulties in such areas as passage rights, importing goods, currency, provision of utilities and health services, and host nation cooperation. Thus, over time enclaves have tended to be eliminated. For example, two-thirds of the then-existing national-level enclaves were extinguished on August 1, 2015, when the governments of [[India]] and [[Bangladesh]] implemented a Land Boundary Agreement that exchanged 162 first-order enclaves (111 Indian and 51 Bangladeshi). This exchange thus effectively de-enclaved another two dozen second-order enclaves and one third-order enclave, eliminating 197 of the [[Indo-Bangladesh enclaves]] in all. The residents in these enclaves had complained of being effectively stateless. Only Bangladesh's Dahagram–Angarpota enclave remained. ===Enclave versus exclave=== For illustration, in the figure (above), A1 is a '''semi-enclave''' (attached to C and also bounded by water that only touches C's territorial water). Although A2 is an exclave of A, it cannot be classed as an enclave because it shares borders with B and C. The territory A3 is both an exclave of A and an enclave from the viewpoint of B. The singular territory D, although an enclave, is not an exclave. ==True enclaves== {{Further information|List of enclaves and exclaves}} An enclave is a part of the territory of a state that is enclosed within the territory of another state. To distinguish the parts of a state entirely enclosed in a single other state, they are called '''true enclaves'''.<ref name="EV"/>{{rp|10}} A true enclave cannot be reached without passing through the territory of a single other state that surrounds it. ''Vinokurov (2007)'' calls this the restrictive definition of "enclave" given by international law, which thus "comprises only so-called 'true enclaves'".<ref name="EV">{{cite book|first=Evgeny| last=Vinokurov| title = The Theory of Enclaves | year = 2007| publisher = Lexington Books, Lanham, MD}}</ref>{{rp|10}} Two examples are [[Büsingen]], a true enclave of Germany, and [[Campione d'Italia]], a true enclave of Italy, both surrounded by Switzerland. The definition of a territory comprises both land territory and territorial waters. In the case of enclaves in territorial waters, they are called maritime (those surrounded by territorial sea) or lacustrine (if in a lake) enclaves.<ref name="EV"/>{{rp|10}} Most of the true national-level enclaves now existing are in Asia and Europe. While subnational enclaves are numerous the world over, there are only a few national-level true enclaves in Africa, Australia and the Americas (each such enclave being surrounded by the territorial waters of another country). A historical example was [[West Berlin]] before the reunification of [[Germany]]. Since 1945, all of Berlin was ruled ''de jure'' by the four Allied powers. However, the East German government and the [[Soviet Union]] treated East Berlin as an integral part of East Germany, so West Berlin was a ''de facto'' enclave within [[East Germany]]. Also, 12 small West Berlin enclaves, such as [[Steinstücken]], were separated from the city, some by only a few meters.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://berlin.enclaves.org/|title=Berlin Exclaves|accessdate=2013-05-02}}</ref> ===Enclaved countries=== [[File:LocationLesotho.png|frame|Position of Lesotho within South Africa]] {{see also|List of countries that border only one other country}} Three nations are completely surrounded by another country: * The Republic of [[San Marino]], enclaved within [[Italy]] * [[Vatican City]], enclaved within the city of [[Rome]], Italy * The Kingdom of [[Lesotho]], enclaved within [[South Africa]] The Principality of [[Monaco]] is not an enclave, although it only borders [[France]], because it possesses a coastline and territorial waters. For the same reason, [[Canada]], [[The Gambia]], [[Portugal]], and [[South Korea]] are also not enclaves. Historically, four of the [[Bantustans]] (or "Black homelands") of South Africa were granted nominal independence, unrecognized internationally, by the Nationalist government from 1976 until their reabsorption in 1994. Others remained under government rule from 1948 to 1994. Being heavily partitioned, various parts of these Bantustans were true enclaves. The United States' constitutional principle of [[tribal sovereignty]] treats federally-recognized [[Indian reservation]]s as quasi-independent enclaves. ===Temporary enclaves=== To establish jurisdiction, the [[Scottish Court in the Netherlands]], at Camp Zeist near [[Utrecht (city)|Utrecht]], was temporarily declared as sovereign territory of the [[United Kingdom]] under [[Scots law]] for the duration of the trial of those accused in the [[Lockerbie bombing]], and was therefore an exclave of the United Kingdom and of [[Scotland]], and an enclave within the Netherlands. This was also so during the appeal against the conviction. The court was first convened in 1999, and the land returned to the Netherlands in 2002.<ref name="BBC">{{cite news| url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/1870685.stm | agency=[[BBC News]] | date=2002-03-14 | accessdate=2011-01-30 | title=Uncertain future for Camp Zeist| quote=The former military base at Camp Zeist in Holland has been under Scottish jurisdiction for more than three years.

''Vinokurov (2007)'' declares, "Technically, [[Portugal]], [[Denmark]], and [[Canada]] also border only one foreign state, but they are not enclosed in the geographical, political, or economic sense. They have vast access to international waters. At the same time, there are states that, although in possession of sea access, are still enclosed by the territories of a foreign state."<ref name="EV"/>{{rp|14}} Therefore, a quantitative principle applies: ''the land boundary must be longer than the coastline.'' Thus a state is classified as a ''sovereign semi-enclave'' if it borders on just one state, and its land boundary is longer than its sea coastline.<ref name="EV"/>{{rp|14, 20–22}} Vinokurov affirms that "no similar quantitative criterion is needed to define the scope of non-sovereign semi-enclaves/exclaves."<ref name="EV"/>{{rp|14, 26}}<ref>''Vinokurov (2007)'', p. 29, also refers to semi-exclaves as a type of "mere exclave with sea connection to the mainland."</ref> Examples include: * [[Alaska]], one of the states in the [[United States|United States of America]], is the largest semi-enclave in the world, separated from the US by Canada. * [[Oecusse]], a district on the northwestern side of the island of Timor, is a semi-enclave of [[East Timor]]. * [[Ceuta]] and [[Melilla]] are Spanish semi-enclaves on the Mediterranean coast of [[Morocco]]. * [[Temburong]] is a Bruneian semi-enclave surrounded by [[Malaysia]]. * [[Kaliningrad Oblast]] is a federal subject of [[Russia]] (an oblast), a semi-exclave situated on the Baltic coast. * [[Cabinda Province|Cabinda]] (also spelled '''Kabinda''', formerly '''Portuguese Congo''') is a semi-exclave and a [[Provinces of Angola|province]] of [[Angola]] on the Atlantic coast of southwestern [[Africa]], separated by the only sea access port of the [[Democratic Republic of the Congo]]. * [[French Guiana]] (a [[French overseas department|French Overseas Department]]), in [[South America]], is a semi-exclave that is bounded by [[Suriname]], [[Brazil]], and the [[Atlantic Ocean]]. ===Subnational enclaves and exclaves=== Sometimes, administrative divisions of a country, for historical or practical reasons, caused some areas to belong to one division while being attached to another. * [[Dadra DNH|Dadra]], enclaved within the state of [[Gujarat]], is part of [[Dadra and Nagar Haveli]] in [[India]] * [[Pondicherry district]], of the Union Territory of [[Puducherry]], is made of 12 non-contiguous parts,<ref>{{cite web|url= http://police.pondicherry.gov.in/Map%20all%20region%20ok/Puducherry%20Map%2025.05.11.htm| title = Map showing the existing police station limits|accessdate=2013-09-30}}</ref> many of them true enclaves entirely surrounded by the state of [[Tamil Nadu]]. Before Pondicherry, along with the other territories of [[French India]], was absorbed into India in 1954, they were enclaved within the Union of India, and before that the [[British Raj]].

A commonly cited example is the [[Kleinwalsertal]], a valley part of [[Vorarlberg]], Austria, that is only accessible from Germany to the north, being separated from the rest of Austria by high mountains traversed by no roads. Another example is the Spanish village of [[Os de Civís]] accessible from Andorra. Hence, such areas are enclaves or exclaves ''for practical purposes,'' without meeting the strict definition. Many pene-exclaves partially border the sea or another body of water, which comprises their own territorial waters (i.e., they are not surrounded by other nations' territorial waters). Because they border their own territorial waters in addition to a land border with another country, they are not true exclaves. Still, one cannot travel to them on land without going through another country. Attribution of a pene-enclave status to a territory can sometimes be disputed, depending on whether the territory is considered to be practically inaccessible from the mainland or not.<ref name="EV"/>{{rp|33}} * [[Northern Ireland]], an area of the [[United Kingdom]], is bounded by the [[Republic of Ireland]], the [[Irish Sea]] and the [[Atlantic Ocean]]. * [[Equatorial Guinea]]'s continental portion, [[Rio Muni]], is a semi-exclave surrounded by [[Gabon]], [[Cameroon]] and the [[Atlantic Ocean]]. * The [[Northwest Angle]] in Minnesota is geographically separated from the rest of the state (and United States) by [[Lake of the Woods]] and is only accessible on land through [[Canada]], via [[Manitoba]]. * [[Point Roberts]], [[Washington (state)|Washington]], is an unincorporated community in [[Whatcom County]]—located on the southernmost tip of the Tsawwassen Peninsula, south of Delta, British Columbia, Canada—that can be reached by land from the rest of the United States only by traveling through Canada. * [[Vermont]] has two pene-enclaves with Canada.

The promontory is cut through by the US-Canada border; as such the area is a practical enclave of the United States contiguous with Canada. Similarly, the southern point of [[Province Island]] ({{coord|45|0|15|N|72|13|52|W}}), a small island mostly in the Canadian province of Quebec, crosses into the American state of Vermont.

These enclaves are sometimes called ''counter-enclaves''. *The Dutch municipality of [[Baarle-Nassau]] has seven exclaves in two exclaves of the Belgian municipality of [[Baarle-Hertog]]. *The former complex of enclaves at [[Cooch Behar district]] included 24 second-order enclaves and one small '''third-order enclave''' called ''[[Dahala Khagrabari|Dahala Khagrabari #51]]'': a piece of India within Bangladesh, within India, within Bangladesh.

Santo André corresponds to the old town (located inside the medieval walls), but excludes the citadel, which is an enclave inside the old town; the citadel belongs to Santa Maria, which also includes the entire new town (outside the walls) and the vast rural area around it. Thus, Santa Maria has an enclave (Santo André, the old town) with a second-order enclave inside it (the citadel).<ref>Instituto Geográfico do Exército: [http://www.igeoe.pt/igeoearcweb/igeoesig/ExecCmd.asp?cmd=SelArea&distrito=%C9VORA&concelho=ESTREMOZ&freguesia=ESTREMOZ%20%28SANTA%20MARIA%29 Territory of Santa Maria (Estremoz)]</ref> ===Ethnic enclaves=== An [[ethnic enclave]] is a community of an ethnic group inside an area in which another ethnic group predominates. [[Ghetto]]s, [[Little Italy]]s, [[barrio]]s and [[Chinatown]]s are examples. These areas may have a separate language, culture and economic system. * [[Székely Land]] is a [[Hungarian people|Hungarian]] ethnic enclave within [[Romania]], with its people calling themselves [[Székely]]. Originally, the name ''Székely Land'' denoted an autonomous region within [[Transylvania]]. It existed as a legal entity from medieval times until the [[Austro-Hungarian Compromise of 1867]], when the Székely and [[Transylvanian Saxons|Saxon]] seats were dissolved and replaced by the [[Comitatus (Kingdom of Hungary)#Modernised counties (1867–1918)|county system]]. Along with Transylvania, it became a part of Romania in 1920, according with the [[Treaty of Trianon]] signed on 4 June 1920 at the Grand Trianon Palace in Versailles, France. In 1938–1940, during World War II, post-Trianon Hungary temporarily expanded its territory and included some additional territories that were formerly part of pre-war Kingdom of Hungary, under [[Third Reich]] auspices, the [[Second Vienna Award]]. It was later reduced to boundaries approximating those of 1920 by the peace treaties signed after World War II at Paris, in 1947. The area was called [[Magyar Autonomous Region]] between September 8, 1952 and February 16, 1968 a Hungarian autonomous region within Romania, and today there are [[Székely autonomy initiatives|territorial autonomy initiatives]] to reach a higher level of self-governance for this region within Romania.{{citation needed|date=May 2017}} * The 2008 film ''[[Silent Light]]'' depicts a [[Mennonite]] Flemish sect living within the Mexican state of [[Chihuahua (state)|Chihuahua]], who speak a dialect called [[Plautdietsch]].{{citation needed|date=May 2017}} * There are several [[Kosovo Serb enclaves|Serb enclaves in Kosovo]] where the institutions of [[Kosovo]] are not fully operational due to disputes.{{citation needed|date=May 2017}} ===Extraterritoriality=== Diplomatic missions, such as embassies and consulates, as well as military bases, are usually exempted from the jurisdiction of the host country, i.e., the laws of the host nation in which an embassy is located do not typically apply to the land of the embassy or base itself. This exemption from the jurisdiction of the host country is defined as [[extraterritoriality]]. Areas and buildings enjoying some forms of extraterritoriality are not true enclaves since, in all cases, the host country retains full sovereignty. In addition to embassies, some other areas enjoy a limited form of extraterritoriality. Examples of this include: * [[Pavillon de Breteuil]] in [[France]], used by the [[General Conference on Weights and Measures]]. * [[United Nations headquarters]] in the [[United States]], used by the [[United Nations]]. * [[United Nations Office at Geneva]] in [[Switzerland]], used by the [[United Nations]]. * [[INTERPOL]] headquarters in [[Lyon]], [[France]], used by [[INTERPOL]] * [[NATO]] (political) headquarters near [[Evere]] in [[Haren, Belgium|Haren]], a part of the [[City of Brussels]], [[Belgium]]. * Headquarters [[Allied Command Operations]] ([[NATO]]) at the area designated as [[Supreme Headquarters Allied Powers Europe]] (SHAPE), North of [[Mons]], [[Belgium]] * [[Palazzo Malta]] and the [[Villa del Priorato di Malta]], the headquarters of [[Sovereign Military Order of Malta]] in Rome. In addition to extraterritoriality, Italy recognizes the exercise by SMOM of all the prerogatives of sovereignty in its headquarters. Therefore, Italian sovereignty and SMOM sovereignty uniquely coexist without overlapping.<ref>{{cite web| url= https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B9LDb9lFYjVPUnFkaUVjVVdVUnM/view?usp=sharing| publisher=Analítica.com| location=Caracas, Distrito Capital, Venezuela| accessdate=October 1, 2012| last=Arocha|first=Magaly | title= La Orden de Malta y su Naturaleza Jurídica (The Order of Malta and Its Legal Nature) | date=May 1999}}</ref> * [[Properties of the Holy See|Extraterritorial properties of the Holy See]] in Rome and surroundings. * By treaty of 2 November 1929, [[Czechoslovakia]] obtained the lease for 99 years of two plots of land (in the [[Moldauhafen]] and in the [[Saalehafen]]), both within the perimeter of the free port of [[Hamburg]].

Since diverting a railway is expensive, this arrangement may last a long time. This may mean that doors on passenger trains are locked and guarded to prevent illicit entry and exit while the train is temporarily in another country. Borders can also be in the "wrong" place, forcing railways into difficult terrain. Examples include: * [[Salzburg]] to [[Innsbruck]] (Austria) (passes [[Rosenheim]], Germany). A railway line within Austria exists as well, but trains take about 1.5 hours longer than across German territory. * Trains on the [[Birsig Valley Line]] from [[Basel]] to [[Rodersdorf]], Switzerland, which passes through [[Leymen]], France.

There is one station, [[Štrpci]], but there are no border crossing facilities and trains do not call at the station. * The Knin – Bihać railway between Croatia and Bosnia is split by the Croatian–Bosnian border several times. Similarly, the Savski Marof – Imeno railway was split by the Slovenian–Croatian border several times. * The local trains on the [[Burgenlandbahn]] in Austria cross the area of Hungary at [[Sopron]]. During the era of the Iron Curtain, the trains had their doors locked as they traversed Hungarian territory. * The line from [[Ventimiglia]] to [[Limone Piemonte]], Italy, via [[Breil-sur-Roya]], France. * The [[Hochrheinbahn]] ([[Upper Rhine Railway]]) from [[Basel]] via [[Waldshut-Tiengen|Waldshut]] to [[Schaffhausen]] is part of the [[Deutsche Bahn]] network, and is mostly in Germany, but the two ends are in Switzerland and it is only connected with the rest of the German railway network via Switzerland. At both Basel and Schaffhausen the railway has [[extraterritorial]] status: one can travel by train to and from the rest of Germany without going through Swiss customs. See [[Basel Badischer Bahnhof]]. * Similarly, during the [[Cold War]], underground lines in [[West Berlin]] ran under parts of [[East Berlin]].

The rail route was built by Chile under the [[Treaty of Peace and Friendship of 1904 between Chile and Bolivia]], with the Bolivian section transferred to Bolivia after 15 years. Bolivia enjoyed duty-free use of the railway and the ports connected. * Due to inability to agree in 1963 on a shorter route through easy terrain, the [[Mauritania Railway|iron ore railway]] in [[Mauritania]] originally had to use a longer route through a tunnel (built through 2&nbsp;km of solid [[granite]]) near [[Choum]] to avoid the territory of [[Spanish Sahara]].

A pene-enclave can also exist entirely on land, such as when intervening mountains render a territory inaccessible from other parts of a country except through alien territory. A commonly cited example is the [[Kleinwalsertal]], a valley part of [[Vorarlberg]], Austria, that is only accessible from Germany to the north. ==Origin and usage== The word ''enclave'' is French and first appeared in the mid-15th century as a derivative of the verb ''enclaver'' (1283), from the colloquial Latin ''inclavare'' (to close with a key).<ref name="LGR">Le Grand Robert, Dictionnaire de la langue française, 2001, vol.III, p. 946.</ref> Originally, it was a term of property law that denoted the situation of a land or parcel of land surrounded by land owned by a different owner, and that could not be reached for its exploitation in a practical and sufficient manner without crossing the surrounding land.<ref name="LGR"/> In law, this created a ''servitude''<ref>''Servitude: '''Law'''. A right possessed by one person with respect to another's property, consisting either of a right to use the other's property, or a power to prevent certain uses of it''. Webster's, p. 1304.</ref> of passage for the benefit of the owner of the surrounded land. The first diplomatic document to contain the word ''enclave'' was the [[Treaty of Madrid (1526)|Treaty of Madrid]], signed in 1526.<ref name="Melamid">{{cite news|first=Alexander|last= Melamid|title=Enclaves and Exclaves|work=International Encyclopedia of the Social Sciences|volume=5|year= 1968|editor-first= David| editor-last= Sills| publisher=The Macmillan Company & Free Press}}</ref>{{rp|61}} Later, the term enclave began to be used also to refer to parcels of countries, counties, fiefs, communes, towns, parishes, etc. that were surrounded by alien territory. This French word eventually entered the English and other languages to denote the same concept although local terms have continued to be used. In India, the word "pocket" is often used as a synonym for enclave (such as "the pockets of Puducherry district").<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.jobresultsnic.in/2014/12/bsnl-recruitment-2014-2015-apply-for.html |title=Government Jobs in BSNL : 01 Jobs Opening |publisher=jobresultsnic.in |date= |accessdate=2014-02-24 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20141224165814/http://www.jobresultsnic.in/2014/12/bsnl-recruitment-2014-2015-apply-for.html |archivedate=2014-12-24 |df= }}</ref> In British administrative history, subnational enclaves were usually called '''detachments''' or '''detached parts''', and national enclaves as '''detached districts''' or '''detached dominions'''.<ref>As can be seen on 18th. century maps of Germany and other European countries by British cartographers and publishers such as R. Wilkinson.</ref> In English [[ecclesiology|ecclesiastic]] history, subnational enclaves were known as '''peculiars''' (see also [[Royal Peculiar]]). The word ''exclave'', modeled on enclave,<ref>'''Exclave'''. Webster's, p. 497.</ref> is a logical extension of the concept of enclave. ==Characteristics== <!--PNG images containing transparencies do not display properly for some users.

For example, in the [[feudal system]] in Europe, the ownership of feudal domains was often transferred or partitioned, either through purchase and sale or through inheritance, and often such domains were or came to be surrounded by other domains. In particular, this state of affairs persisted into the 19th century in the [[Holy Roman Empire]], and these domains (principalities, etc.) exhibited many of the characteristics of sovereign states. Prior to 1866 Prussia alone consisted of more than 270 discontiguous pieces of territory.<ref name="Melamid"/>{{rp|61}} Residing in an enclave within another country has often involved difficulties in such areas as passage rights, importing goods, currency, provision of utilities and health services, and host nation cooperation. Thus, over time enclaves have tended to be eliminated. For example, two-thirds of the then-existing national-level enclaves were extinguished on August 1, 2015, when the governments of [[India]] and [[Bangladesh]] implemented a Land Boundary Agreement that exchanged 162 first-order enclaves (111 Indian and 51 Bangladeshi). This exchange thus effectively de-enclaved another two dozen second-order enclaves and one third-order enclave, eliminating 197 of the [[Indo-Bangladesh enclaves]] in all. The residents in these enclaves had complained of being effectively stateless. Only Bangladesh's Dahagram–Angarpota enclave remained. ===Enclave versus exclave=== For illustration, in the figure (above), A1 is a '''semi-enclave''' (attached to C and also bounded by water that only touches C's territorial water). Although A2 is an exclave of A, it cannot be classed as an enclave because it shares borders with B and C. The territory A3 is both an exclave of A and an enclave from the viewpoint of B. The singular territory D, although an enclave, is not an exclave. ==True enclaves== {{Further information|List of enclaves and exclaves}} An enclave is a part of the territory of a state that is enclosed within the territory of another state. To distinguish the parts of a state entirely enclosed in a single other state, they are called '''true enclaves'''.<ref name="EV"/>{{rp|10}} A true enclave cannot be reached without passing through the territory of a single other state that surrounds it. ''Vinokurov (2007)'' calls this the restrictive definition of "enclave" given by international law, which thus "comprises only so-called 'true enclaves'".<ref name="EV">{{cite book|first=Evgeny| last=Vinokurov| title = The Theory of Enclaves | year = 2007| publisher = Lexington Books, Lanham, MD}}</ref>{{rp|10}} Two examples are [[Büsingen]], a true enclave of Germany, and [[Campione d'Italia]], a true enclave of Italy, both surrounded by Switzerland. The definition of a territory comprises both land territory and territorial waters. In the case of enclaves in territorial waters, they are called maritime (those surrounded by territorial sea) or lacustrine (if in a lake) enclaves.<ref name="EV"/>{{rp|10}} Most of the true national-level enclaves now existing are in Asia and Europe. While subnational enclaves are numerous the world over, there are only a few national-level true enclaves in Africa, Australia and the Americas (each such enclave being surrounded by the territorial waters of another country). A historical example was [[West Berlin]] before the reunification of [[Germany]]. Since 1945, all of Berlin was ruled ''de jure'' by the four Allied powers. However, the East German government and the [[Soviet Union]] treated East Berlin as an integral part of East Germany, so West Berlin was a ''de facto'' enclave within [[East Germany]]. Also, 12 small West Berlin enclaves, such as [[Steinstücken]], were separated from the city, some by only a few meters.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://berlin.enclaves.org/|title=Berlin Exclaves|accessdate=2013-05-02}}</ref> ===Enclaved countries=== [[File:LocationLesotho.png|frame|Position of Lesotho within South Africa]] {{see also|List of countries that border only one other country}} Three nations are completely surrounded by another country: * The Republic of [[San Marino]], enclaved within [[Italy]] * [[Vatican City]], enclaved within the city of [[Rome]], Italy * The Kingdom of [[Lesotho]], enclaved within [[South Africa]] The Principality of [[Monaco]] is not an enclave, although it only borders [[France]], because it possesses a coastline and territorial waters. For the same reason, [[Canada]], [[The Gambia]], [[Portugal]], and [[South Korea]] are also not enclaves. Historically, four of the [[Bantustans]] (or "Black homelands") of South Africa were granted nominal independence, unrecognized internationally, by the Nationalist government from 1976 until their reabsorption in 1994. Others remained under government rule from 1948 to 1994. Being heavily partitioned, various parts of these Bantustans were true enclaves. The United States' constitutional principle of [[tribal sovereignty]] treats federally-recognized [[Indian reservation]]s as quasi-independent enclaves. ===Temporary enclaves=== To establish jurisdiction, the [[Scottish Court in the Netherlands]], at Camp Zeist near [[Utrecht (city)|Utrecht]], was temporarily declared as sovereign territory of the [[United Kingdom]] under [[Scots law]] for the duration of the trial of those accused in the [[Lockerbie bombing]], and was therefore an exclave of the United Kingdom and of [[Scotland]], and an enclave within the Netherlands. This was also so during the appeal against the conviction. The court was first convened in 1999, and the land returned to the Netherlands in 2002.<ref name="BBC">{{cite news| url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/1870685.stm | agency=[[BBC News]] | date=2002-03-14 | accessdate=2011-01-30 | title=Uncertain future for Camp Zeist| quote=The former military base at Camp Zeist in Holland has been under Scottish jurisdiction for more than three years.

Another example is the Spanish village of [[Os de Civís]] accessible from Andorra. Hence, such areas are enclaves or exclaves ''for practical purposes,'' without meeting the strict definition. Many pene-exclaves partially border the sea or another body of water, which comprises their own territorial waters (i.e., they are not surrounded by other nations' territorial waters). Because they border their own territorial waters in addition to a land border with another country, they are not true exclaves.

This exemption from the jurisdiction of the host country is defined as [[extraterritoriality]]. Areas and buildings enjoying some forms of extraterritoriality are not true enclaves since, in all cases, the host country retains full sovereignty. In addition to embassies, some other areas enjoy a limited form of extraterritoriality.

Since diverting a railway is expensive, this arrangement may last a long time. This may mean that doors on passenger trains are locked and guarded to prevent illicit entry and exit while the train is temporarily in another country. Borders can also be in the "wrong" place, forcing railways into difficult terrain. Examples include: * [[Salzburg]] to [[Innsbruck]] (Austria) (passes [[Rosenheim]], Germany). A railway line within Austria exists as well, but trains take about 1.5 hours longer than across German territory. * Trains on the [[Birsig Valley Line]] from [[Basel]] to [[Rodersdorf]], Switzerland, which passes through [[Leymen]], France. It is operated by [[Baselland Transport]] and serviced by [[10 line (BLT)|line no. 10]], which continues into the [[Trams in Basel|Basel tram network]]. * Trains from [[Neugersdorf]], [[Saxony]] to [[Zittau]] pass Czech territory at [[Varnsdorf]], while Czech trains from Varnsdorf to [[Chrastava]] pass through German territory at Zittau, and then a small part of Polish territory near the village of [[Porajów]]. * Trains from [[Görlitz]] to [[Zittau]], Germany, pass the border river [[Neisse]] several times (see [[Oder–Neisse line]]); the railway station for [[Ostritz]], Germany, lies in Krzewina Zgorzelecka, Poland. * [[Belgrade–Bar railway]] crosses into [[Bosnia and Herzegovina]] for {{convert|9|km}}, between stations Zlatibor and Priboj (both in [[Serbia]]). There is one station, [[Štrpci]], but there are no border crossing facilities and trains do not call at the station. * The Knin – Bihać railway between Croatia and Bosnia is split by the Croatian–Bosnian border several times. Similarly, the Savski Marof – Imeno railway was split by the Slovenian–Croatian border several times. * The local trains on the [[Burgenlandbahn]] in Austria cross the area of Hungary at [[Sopron]]. During the era of the Iron Curtain, the trains had their doors locked as they traversed Hungarian territory. * The line from [[Ventimiglia]] to [[Limone Piemonte]], Italy, via [[Breil-sur-Roya]], France. * The [[Hochrheinbahn]] ([[Upper Rhine Railway]]) from [[Basel]] via [[Waldshut-Tiengen|Waldshut]] to [[Schaffhausen]] is part of the [[Deutsche Bahn]] network, and is mostly in Germany, but the two ends are in Switzerland and it is only connected with the rest of the German railway network via Switzerland. At both Basel and Schaffhausen the railway has [[extraterritorial]] status: one can travel by train to and from the rest of Germany without going through Swiss customs. See [[Basel Badischer Bahnhof]]. * Similarly, during the [[Cold War]], underground lines in [[West Berlin]] ran under parts of [[East Berlin]]. [[Ghost station]]s ({{lang-de|Geisterbahnhöfe}}) were stations on Berlin's [[Berlin U-Bahn|U-Bahn]] and [[Berlin S-Bahn|S-Bahn]] metro networks that were closed during this period of Berlin's division. * The Belgian [[Vennbahn]] (now closed) lies on a narrow strip of Belgian territory running through Germany, creating five German exclaves. * The railway between France and [[Italy]] briefly leaves France to enter [[Monaco]] in a 150-metre tunnel before entering France once more.

This happens because the railway was built before this border was defined. * [[Bolivia]] is landlocked and has no access to the sea, but a [[Arica–La Paz railway|rail route]] runs through [[Chile]] from La Paz to the port of Arica on the Pacific Ocean. The rail route was built by Chile under the [[Treaty of Peace and Friendship of 1904 between Chile and Bolivia]], with the Bolivian section transferred to Bolivia after 15 years. Bolivia enjoyed duty-free use of the railway and the ports connected. * Due to inability to agree in 1963 on a shorter route through easy terrain, the [[Mauritania Railway|iron ore railway]] in [[Mauritania]] originally had to use a longer route through a tunnel (built through 2&nbsp;km of solid [[granite]]) near [[Choum]] to avoid the territory of [[Spanish Sahara]]. The tunnel is no longer in use and trains now use the shorter route through 5&nbsp;km of [[Western Sahara]]n territory controlled by the [[Polisario Front]]. * The shortest and straightest route for a proposed east–west high-speed railway in Austria through [[Linz]], [[Salzburg]] and [[Innsbruck]] would pass under some mountains belonging to Germany.{{citation needed|date=July 2012}} * In 2012, a [[Rail transport in Angola#Caminho de Ferro do Congo|railway route]] from Angola proper to the enclave of [[Cabinda Province|Cabinda]] has to cross not only the [[Congo River]] but also the territory of the [[Democratic Republic of the Congo]]. * In 2013, the shortest railway route from coal mines at [[Tete]] to a port at [[Nacala]] passes through [[Malawi]]. A route through all-[[Mozambique]] territory is roundabout. * In order to avoid such a trans-border arrangement, the [[United States]] made the [[Gadsden Purchase]] of land from [[Mexico]], on which it was planned to build a southern route for the [[transcontinental railroad]]. Owing to the topography of the area, acquisition of the land was the only feasible way to construct such a railroad through the southern [[New Mexico Territory]]. * In 1928, Congo (Belgium) and Angola (Portugal) exchanged some land to facilitate the new route of the railway to Congo-Kinshasa.<ref>[Railways Africa 2014 issue 5, p29]</ref> ===Highway of one state passing through another state's territory=== This arrangement is less common as highways are more easily re-aligned.

Although situated on Swiss soil, because of the 1852 treaty between the Swiss Confederation and the state of Baden (one of the predecessors of today's Germany), the largest part of the station (the platforms and the parts of the passenger tunnel that lead to the German/Swiss checkpoint) is treated administratively as an inner-German railway station operated by the [[Deutsche Bahn]]. The shops in the station hall, however, are Swiss, and the Swiss franc is used as the official currency there (although the euro is universally accepted). The Swiss post office, car rental office, restaurant and a cluster of shops are each separately located wholly within a surrounding station area that is administered by the German railway.<ref>{{cite web | url=http://www.bahn.de/extrahtml/pdf/bahnhofsplaene/basel.pdf | archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20070930022326/http://www.bahn.de/extrahtml/pdf/bahnhofsplaene/basel.pdf | archivedate=2007-09-30 |title= Ihr Bahnhof Basel Bad Bf |accessdate = 2013-02-26 }}</ref> The customs controls are located in a tunnel between the platforms and the station hall; international trains which continue to [[Basel SBB]] usually have on-board border controls. * As a legacy of the British colonial period, the [[Malaysia]]n rail network had its southern terminus at [[Tanjong Pagar railway station]] in central [[Singapore]].
