This is a list of countries and territories by land borders. For each country or territory, the number of unique land boundaries and the identity of other countries and territories that neighbour it are listed. The length of each land border is included, as is the sum total of each country and territory's total land boundaries.
Countries or territories that are connected only by bridges or other man-made causeways are not considered to have land borders. However, borders along lakes, rivers, and other internal waters are considered as land borders for the purposes of this article. Footnotes are included to provide clarity regarding the status of certain countries and territories.

The United States of America (USA), commonly referred to as the United States (U.S.) or America, is a federal republic composed of 50 states, a federal district, five major territories and various possessions. The 48 contiguous states and Washington, D.C., are in central North America between Canada and Mexico. The state of Alaska is in the northwestern part of North America and the state of Hawaii is an archipelago in the mid-Pacific. The territories are scattered about the Pacific Ocean and the Caribbean Sea. At 3.8 million square miles (9.842 million km2) and with over 320 million people, the country is the world's third or fourth-largest by total area and the third most populous. It is one of the world's most ethnically diverse and multicultural nations, the product of large-scale immigration from many countries. The geography and climate of the United States are also extremely diverse, and the country is home to a wide variety of wildlife.
New York is a state in the Northeastern United States and is the United States' 27th-most extensive, fourth-most populous, and seventh-most densely populated state. New York is bordered by New Jersey and Pennsylvania to the south and Connecticut, Massachusetts, and Vermont to the east. The state has a maritime border in the Atlantic Ocean with Rhode Island, east of Long Island, as well as an international border with the Canadian provinces of Quebec to the north and Ontario to the west and north. The state of New York, with an estimated 19.8 million residents in 2015, is often referred to as New York State to distinguish it from New York City, the state's most populous city and its economic hub.
With an estimated population of nearly 8.5 million in 2014, New York City is the most populous city in the United States and the premier gateway for legal immigration to the United States. The New York City Metropolitan Area is one of the most populous urban agglomerations in the world. New York City is a global city, exerting a significant impact upon commerce, finance, media, art, fashion, research, technology, education, and entertainment, its fast pace defining the term New York minute. The home of the United Nations Headquarters, New York City is an important center for international diplomacy and has been described as the cultural and financial capital of the world, as well as the world's most economically powerful city. New York City makes up over 40% of the population of New York State. Two-thirds of the state's population lives in the New York City Metropolitan Area, and nearly 40% live on Long Island. Both the state and New York City were named for the 17th century Duke of York, future King James II of England. The next four most populous cities in the state are Buffalo, Rochester, Yonkers, and Syracuse, while the state capital is Albany.

History of the Mexican-American Border
There's a small stretch of soil north of the Rio Grande river that's still part of the United States, but exists below the Mexican border wall. The Atlantic went inside this no-man’s-land to uncover what life is like in a place that feels like not-quite America, but not-quite Mexico.
In this video I look at some of the most complex international border. Of course, there are more complex borders in the world, but this video looks at some of my favourites. I look at the 3 enclaves countries of the world: Vatican City, San Marino and Lesotho. As well as Campione d'Italia, an Italian exclave which is an enclave of Switzerland. I then take things up a notch and look at enclaves within enclaves. The town of Baarle which is in the Netherlands and Belgium is an incredibly complicated border. But not quite as much as the Cooch Behar region of India and Bangladesh. This is followed by a look at the odd situation of Bir Tawil, the only unclaimed land on Earth outside of Antarctica (which is itself a place for complex borders!) I finish off the video by looking at the islan...
Ever wondered why Michigan has two pieces? How about why Alaska isn't connected to the rest of the United States? The state borders are a lot weirder than they first appear, and often simple river borders will have crazy zig-zags that seem to arbitrarily cross the river. When rivers shape, borders don't, leaving states with strange pieces on the wrong side of the river. Some states like Oklahoma and West Virgina have bizarre panhandles, and Kentucky even has a part cut off my Missouri. Its a strange border situation called an exclave, which is when a part of a the state is only reachable by land through other states or countries. Virginia also has the eastern shore which is strangley is on the other side of the Chesapeake bay. Other bizarre borders include New York and New Jersey, ...
(14 Dec 2016) There's been a rise in migrants and refugees trying to make their way through Greece's border regions, a year after an uncontrolled influx saw more than a million refugees and economic migrants trudge through the debt-hobbled country on their way to Europe's prosperous heartland. Local authorities say it's because restrictive measures imposed in March to curb new arrivals on the Greek islands - where the vast majority of migrants make their first landfall from Turkey - don't apply to people caught on the land border. That allows anyone entering here to jump the queue for refugee relocation to other European countries, and could even spare economic migrants from deportation under this year's European Union-Turkey deal. And, although the land route involves crossing a broad...

In June of 2010, a 15-year-old, unarmed Mexican citizen named Sergio Hernandez Guereca was shot and killed by an agent of the U.S. Border Patrol. The shooting happened in the riverbed of the Rio Grande, which, between the cities of Juarez and El Paso, consists of a mostly dry, concrete culvert. The U.S.-Mexico border runs, unmarked, down the middle of the river, and when the shooting happened, Hernandez was in Mexico, but the agent who shot him was standing in the U.S. When Hernandez’s family sued for damages, two American courts threw out their claim on the grounds that Mexican citizens on Mexican soil were not protected by the U.S. constitution. The case went all the way to the Supreme Court, which heard oral arguments last week. If the court decides in the Hernandez family’s favor, it...

Did you know that the entire southwest used to belong to Mexico? The United States took the land from Mexico after the Annexation of Texas and the Mexican-American war. These events in history still impact us today in major ways, so it's important to know their history. This is a balanced look at the history of the exchange of this land and the conflicts involved based on my research that included reading documents from the time on both sides, and in both English and Spanish. --- Music Song - Dios Nunca Muere Composer - Macedonio Alcalá Musician - Marimba Nacional Diriá Album - In Memoriam Origin - Mexico, 1868 marimbadiria.bandcamp.com Song - El Canto de la Huilota Composer - Aniceto Ortega Origin - Mexico, mid-1800s Song - Corazon Cansado Musician - Nacha Mendez Album - Bodega de ...

What existing channels would allow the two countries to exploit opportunities and overcome their disagreements and the trust deficit? Can their efforts at crisis prevention and management succeed without dispute resolution?
The city of Ceuta is the southernmost outpost of fortress Europe. Yet it is on mainland Africa - opposite the Straights of Gibraltar. It is one of the last vestiges of Spanish rule in northern Morocco. Madrid insists it will never relinquish control and has cordoned it off - prompting comparison with other walls of shame. However, there are growing demands for a more constructive approach to the problem of illegal immigration. One man has already started a grass-roots initiative that proved much more successful than walls and fences. But within the town of Ceuta is another divide - a social division that is religious and economic - between the wealthy Christian Spaniards and their poorer Muslim compatriots of Moroccan descent. This episode of Walls of Shame first aired in November 2007...

Let's take the new patch a little further by seeing what one of the minors can get up to. This time it'll be Sweden breaking from their boring democracy and trying to either nuke Denmark, create the Northern Light faction, or both (if everything goes perfectly)... The achievements that we'll have a crack at this time are: • Northern Light - As a Scandinavian country form your own faction, and have Denmark, Sweden, Norway and Finland in it. • Med plutonium... - Nuke Denmark as Sweden If you enjoy the video please consider leaving a message, clicking like or subscribing to the channel.

Please join the CSIS Americas Program for a two-part panel discussion examining the way forward for the United States and Mexico on managing our shared land border. Given the high-profile political moment, our expert panelists will take a step back to reflect on the US-Mexico border’s dual function as a security instrument and also as an entry and exit valve for the massive two-way flows of people and goods in our commercial relationship. How do we improve security at the same time as managing the nearly US$ 1 billion in trade crosses our land border every day? What are the current challenges? What is working well at the border and can be replicated in other locations? What approach would allow the two countries to achieve real results? Please join us as our expert panelists deep dive...
