Barak, Kyrgyzstan
Barak () was, until 2024, a Kyrgyz village that was surrounded by the territory of Uzbekistan. Its ''de facto'' status as one of the world's relatively few international enclaves began in 1999. Administratively it was part of Kara-Suu District in Kyrgyzstan's Osh Region. It was encircled by the Andijan Region of Uzbekistan. Its population was 985 in 2021. In August 2018 Kyrgyz and Uzbek authorities agreed to a land swap that would eliminate the enclave. The land swap became permanent in April 2024, when the Barak enclave was absorbed by Uzbekistan. Nearly all of its former residents were resettled within Kyrgyzstan. The small town, located in the Fergana Valley, was estimated to consist of 153 families (approximately 1,000 residents). It is located about 4 km northeast of the road from Osh (Kyrgyzstan) to Xoʻjaobod (Uzbekistan) near the Kyrgyz–Uzbek border in the direction toward Qoʻrgʻontepa.

The Russian-language term for this Soviet state policy was ''razmezhevanie'' (, ''natsionalno-territorialnoye razmezhevaniye''), which is variously translated in English-language literature as "national-territorial delimitation" (NTD), "demarcation", or "partition". National delimitation formed part of a broader process of changes in administrative-territorial division, which also changed the boundaries of territorial units, but was not necessarily linked to national or ethnic considerations. National delimitation in the USSR was distinct from nation-building (), which typically referred to the policies and actions implemented ...
