from
Wikipedia
The district of Laufental has the same history as that of Arlesheim.
The important difference is that in 1815 Laufental joined Bern rather than Basel.
When the canton of Jura was created in 1979, the district of Laufental became an enclave of the canton of Bern.
It was allowed self-determination and in 1980 the people decided to join the canton of Basel-Landschaft.
This led to Laufental joining the canton of Basel-Landschaft on 1 January 1994 after a lengthy administrative process.
