Think the U.S./Canada border is one of the most boring places on Earth? Think again.
The 3,433 km-long border is the longest in the world, but it isn’t marked in the traditional way.
There’s a six-metre divide between the countries’ forests called the “no touch zone.” This separates the two nations, with only a few exceptions: Derby Line, Vermont; Stanstead, Quebec; Point Roberts, Washington; and Hyder, Alaska.
Despite the countries coexisting peacefully, maybe a wall will be put up in the future to make the border clearer.

Why the U.S./Canada border is the most bizarre border in the world

What utter crap.
Usually made by leftist idiots who have no idea about the real world.


1. Baarle Nassau, Belgium and Netherlands.

Enclaves and counter enclaves between the 2 countries.

2. Between India and Bangladesh, there is a territory named Cooch-Behar district which is a very confusing case of national borders. Here, 102 mini Indian exclaves are on the Bangladeshi side of the border whereas 71 Bangladeshi exclaves are on the Indian side of the border and to make it even more confusing, some of these exclaves have further smaller exclaves inside them which belong to the other country.




Morons.

The border between Nepal and China is pretty bizarre - it's the tallest in the world. The border even splits Everest at its summit.

Vennbahn (German pronunciation: [ˈfɛnbaːn], "Fen Railway") is a former railway line that was built partly across what was then German territory by the Prussian state railways. It is now entirely in Belgium, because the trackbed of the line, as well as the stations and other installations, were made provisional Belgian territory in 1919 (permanent in 1922) under an article of the Treaty of Versailles.

This had the effect of creating six small exclaves of Germany on the line's western side,[1] of which five remain. The treaty (not the location of the trackbed, per se) also created one small Belgian counter-enclave, a traffic island inside a three-way German road intersection near Fringshaus.
