Countries are one of the oldest ways to separate between large groups of people. They are political lines drawn in the sand, sometimes separating different cultures, religions and even enemies. Some are very relaxed, taking only a skip and a jump to go from one country to the other, while some are defined by natural geography. Here is a fantastic collection of 50 international borders from around the world!
