Find a country Italy is in, given that:

Belgium is in The Netherlands

Germany is in Switzerland

The United Arab Emirates are in Oman

Russia is in Belarus

Note: This puzzle was inspired by Which country is INDIA in?

However, I noticed that the question is not possible anymore with India.

The answer is:

Switzerland

Because:

Campione d'Italia is an Italian exclave which is an enclave in Switzerland
Baarle-Hertog is a Belgian exclave which is an enclave in the Netherlands
Büsingen am Hochrhein is a German exclave which is an enclave in Switzerland
Nahwa is an exclave of the United Arab Emirates which is an enclave in Oman
San'kovo-Medvezh'e is a Russian exclave which is an enclave in Belarus

  • I was going to point out that India would be possible with this answer, but it turns out it isn't for a little less than a year! (about time they took care of that...) – ffao Apr 08 '16 at 20:08
  • @ffao Actually, there is still one enclave of Bangladesh in India (though not dozens like before). – gparyani Mar 07 '19 at 20:59

How?

They are sharing their borders

Germany is in Switzerland

The UAE is in Oman

Russia is in Belarus

So the Italia aka Italy is in Switzerland
