Canada borders the Atlantic, Pacific and atlantic ocean. is there any other country that borders 3 oceans.
sorry i said atlantic twice i meant artic

U.S. and Canada: the Atlantic, Pacific, and ARCTIC oceans.

Russia: the Atlantic (the Baltic Sea and the Black Sea & Sea of Azov), the Arctic, and the Pacific.

Australia depends. The "new" Southern Ocean is generally held to have its boundary at 60 degrees South latitude all around the Earth (the this definition and even the existence of the ocean is controversial). Australia, however, says that the Southern Ocean extends up to its southern coast. Therefore, according to Australia itself, the country is surrounded by three oceans.

FInally, some countries like France, Britain, Norway, and South Africa still have island territories or protectorates in the Indian and Pacific oceans, or even in the possible area of the Southern Ocean. In addition to their coastlines of their main territory, these combine to give three (or in the case of Britain *maybe* four) oceans. Again, like Australia, it depends on the definition of thje Southern Ocean.

What Happens to the Road Between Country Borders…?

…When a country that drives on the right side merges with a country that drives on the left. Is there an overpass or something that you drive over or under to begin driving on the opposite side?

Roads which go from one nation to another have border crossings at which they check passports or visas, question you about your visit, etc. Once you have passed, you would proceed from the booth or checkpoint to the road where you drive on the other side–assuming it’s legal to drive there. In some places with ‘wrong’ side driving, those with valid drivers licenses from other countries are not permitted to drive. (Bermuda is like this.)

How dare some americans demand that their country secure their borders ?

and stop people from mexico from willy nilly come prancing over the border to take jobs that could be going to americans who are going through record unemployment?

Yep. And how dare those Native Americans trying to secure their territory in current day-U.S. from those English settlers back in the 1600s?

But really…
Our country is based on the idea that people come here from other places to better their lives and make contributions (the American dream).

And if these foreigners are taking our jobs, what does that say about our competence, skill-level, and work eithic, in comparison to theirs? Jobs aren’t the entitlement of Americans… they are a privilege to those who possess skills and work hard.

Which tiny country borders Belgium and France?

I know I can use a map, but I did and it was abbreviated so I don’t the full name of the country. The country’s capital is Luxembourg.
thank you

Luxembourg is the country and the city of Luxembourg is its capitol (it IS almost "that" tiny!).
To confuse you further, one of the provinces which make up the adjacent country of Belgium is also called Luxembourg.

What is the only central American country that borders four other countries?

That would be Guatemala. It has borders with El Salvador to the south, Honduras to the south-east, Mexico to the north and Belize to the north-east.

I hope this helps you.

How are country borders determined? Why aren’t they simply straight lines?

admin — Thu, 17 Mar 2011 11:30:50 +0000

Because borders are also determined by coastlines, rivers, mountains, etc. Mostly, they are determined by wars. Sometimes the war is settled by drawing straight lines, but a lot of times the borders are settled by how far the armies can go.

Can you name a country that borders the Mediterranean Sea?

No. They already HAVE names.
If *I* named them I would be mocked!
