[QUOTE="Liquid, post: 13126995, member: 167130"] One of the more unusual sections of European borders is that between Belgium and the Netherlands in Baarle-Hertog. Created after the 1843 Treaty of Maastricht that ultimately settled the disputed territory of recently formed Belgium from the Netherlands from which it gained its independence, it consists of multiple small Belgian exclaves within the Dutch province of Noord-Brabant and even some Dutch exclaves within the Belgian exclaves. From what I understand, there are houses which are in two different countries where the borders run through and commercial properties that are subject to ever so slightly different laws and practices in one part of the premises but not another for the same reasons.
