The US/Quebec borders in Maine and Vermont are kinda weird in general at places.

How the hell did things end up like that?

The enclaves were used as stakes in card or chess games centuries ago between two regional kings, the Raja of Cooch Behar and the Maharaja of Rangpur.[3] The little territories were the result of a confused outcome of a treaty between the Kingdom of Koch Bihar and the Mughal Empire.[4]

Oh. Well, thats cool I guess.
