    You'll have to blame my teacher for that
    Once he asked me the same question and I answered La Paz, just wanted to do the same thing here.

    What do you mean by landlocked? No way to the sea? There are many countries then eg Liechtenstein, San Marino, Cita del Vaticano, Bolivia, Paraguay,...

    Ajax got it. Double landlocked means not only is the country landlocked, all it's neighbors are too. You'd have to go through 2 countries to get to the ocean/sea.

    Well, if it's my turn, I'll do another one about countries and their neighbors.

    What country shares the most land borders with others, and how many neighbors does it have?
