Subject: "Doubly-landlocked countries"
 
Another odd question:  I was asked what the term "doubly-landlocked"
means.  This person heard it in the context of there being only two
countries in the world that are "doubly-landlocked," one of
them being Uzbekistan.*  My only idea is that it means you have to
traverse two countries to reach the sea from these countries.  Anyone
else have insight on this term?

"doubly-landlocked nation!)   --- Ken Rockwell, U of U, Utah, USA
