Border irregularities of the Highlands-Lowlands Border

The Highlands-Lowlands Border between the nation of the Highlands in the Seafaring Confederation and the Lowlands part of Scotland is notorious for its many odd-shaped border irregularities. These irregularities include enclaves and exclaves, practical exclaves, panhandles, as well as what is considered the world's narrowest strip of land belonging to one country whilst being surrounded by another.

The Lowlands Glens


The Lowlands Glens are four glens, namely North Esk Glen, Waterhead Glen, Clova Glen and Prosen Glen, as well as four exclaves. The four glens belong to the Lowlands, which also has two exclaves in Highlands territory (the Glenesk Upper Farms). In the other direction, the Highlands have two exclaves in Lowlands territory (Ogil Village and Edzell Forest).

In several places, the width of the land belonging to the Lowlands is less than 60 metres, protruding in what could otherwise be considered Highlands territory.

Craigie


Craigie is a small village located on the opposite side of the Loch of Clunie in regards to the Highlands.
