These are called Exclaves and there's way more of them than you might think. I think this isn't the only double Exclaves either. There are so many border fuckery things around the world, even in countries you might not expect, I want to make a YouTube video on them, I'm obsessed with finding them on google maps.
Take a look at the border of Nederland and België for an extreme example:
Wow, I knew the border wasn't a straight line, but I didn't realize quite how fractal it was. It's like they interviewed each household and decided on a case-by-case basis who was Belgian and who was Dutch.
If you look closely it's not even house by house. Much of it is just random fields or parts of fields. Maybe houses stood there decades or centuries earlier when the borders were drawn up, IDK

Maybe you’ve already seen that and are proposing a video covering even more of them, which I would love to watch!
