Why this one is hard

5 neighbours, and 5 pairs of them border each other too.

Its 5 land borders are joint 6th-most in Europe — level with Azerbaijan, Bulgaria, Belarus, Switzerland, Croatia, Kazakhstan, Montenegro, North Macedonia and Romania. Of the 10 possible pairings among them, 5 are themselves borders, which is what turns a list into a knot. Austria is the most connected of them, with 8 land borders of its own. All of them deal on the Europe board alongside Slovakia, and on the world board with everyone else in Europe.
