          In a word it could be




          Oman which is written inside Romania, but is not a geographical enclave.

          Mali which is in Somalia

            Could be




            Monaco, which on land is bordered by France from all sides and whose maritime borders are completely surrounded by French territorial waters. It doesn't count as an enclave because it's on the coast.

            It could be




            India




            since that lies entirely within




            (inside) another country




            I presume there's others by that logic

              6














              Could it be




              Singapore?




              This is because




              It’s a city state surrounded by Indonesia, but it’s not an enclave?

                Based on existing answers, it's:




                Russia, which is inside Belorussia




                or, if you prefer




                in Belorussian, Русь inside Беларусь (using slightly glorious, less standard country name).




                Alternately and more geographically,




                Munich in Italian is Monaco, and it lies completely within Germany, but Monaco is also a sovereign country. And it's not an enclave, it's a homonym.

                  Somekind of inside
