How BorderHop counts borders
BorderHop counts land borders between countries on the same continent. Borders along rivers and through lakes count as land borders (Chad and Nigeria meet only in Lake Chad; in the Americas game, Pennsylvania and Ontario meet in Lake Erie); borders at sea don’t. Exclaves count, so Russia borders Poland and Lithuania through Kaliningrad; these are flagged as technical borders, along with the 150 m Botswana–Zambia crossing at Kazungula. Territories on another continent don’t count: Spain’s Ceuta and Melilla don’t connect Spain to Morocco, and French Guiana doesn’t connect France to Brazil or Suriname. Island nations with no land border aren’t included.
- Botswana – Zambia: they meet only at Kazungula, a border of about 150 m on the Zambezi river
- Azerbaijan – Turkey: only through Azerbaijan’s Nakhchivan exclave
- Poland – Russia: only through Russia’s Kaliningrad exclave
- Lithuania – Russia: only through Russia’s Kaliningrad exclave
- Angola – Republic of the Congo: only through Angola’s Cabinda exclave
