"There are 102 Indian enclaves inside Bangladesh, and 71 Bangladesh
enclaves inside of India. There are 28 counter-enclaves and even one
counter-counter-enclave (yes, the only "enclave within an enclave within
an enclave" in the world).

kings, the Raja of Cooch Behar and his rival, the Faujdar of Rangpur,
who used land and villages as stakes in card and chess games."
