∙ 11y agoSouth Africa, though its a generic name, is a country in its own right. Within South Africa is the enclaved country Lesotho. Lesotho is a mountainous country, probably excluded from South Africa because the British colonists administered it as a separate area and it has no valuable Natural Resources to make it attractive.
Swaziland is sometimes thought to be enclaved, but as it has borders with both Mozambique and South Africa it is only land-locked, not an enclave.
