A '''border''' is an [[edge]] or [[boundary]], most frequently of a [[country]]. Some countries have a border disputes, a good example of a border dispute is in the [[Kashmir]] region divided between [[Pakistan]] and [[India]]. The longest border between two countries is the [[United States]]-[[Canada]] border. Closed borders are borders where you can't pass, the [[Armenia]]-[[Turkey]] border is a so called closed border. There are 65 countries that have build a wall on (some of) their borders. The best known walls are on the [[Israel]]-[[Palestine]] border, and the United States-[[Mexico]] border wich is only partly build at the moment.<ref>http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3205724/How-65-countries-erected-security-walls-borders.html</ref> Another fenomenon are open borders, when a number of countries agree to give full access to civilians and goods of other member states to enter their territory, like in the [[European Union]]. Borders can be very complex with [[enclaves]] and [[exclaves]], the India-[[Bangladesh]] border is an example of a very complex borderline. A famous quote about borders comes from the American president Donald Trump saying that "A nation without borders isn't a nation".
