Subject: the most borders
Sender: Mark Thomas <[log in to unmask]>
 
 
A patron has asked which country shares the most borders with other
countries.  Russia seems like a good bet.  Can anyone corroborate
this or provide an "authoritative" reference?
 
This question seems vaguely familiar from a past maps-l trivia
thread, so tell me if you're sure it's come up in the recent past and
I'll check the maps-l archives.
 
thanks,
        Mark
