Countries that border Armenia

4 land neighbours: Azerbaijan, Georgia, Iran and Turkey. Each one has a page of its own.

Iran borders Armenia too, but is drawn on the Asia map rather than this one — the border is real, it just spans two maps.

Why this one is hard

4 neighbours, and 5 pairs of them border each other too.

18 countries in Europe have more than its 4 land borders; it is the same as Belgium, Czechia, Georgia, Greece, Lithuania, Latvia, Montenegro, North Macedonia and Slovenia. Of the 6 possible pairings among them, 5 are themselves borders, which is what turns a list into a knot. Turkey is the most connected of them, with 8 land borders of its own. 3 of them are on the Europe map with Armenia — Iran is on the Asia map instead. The world map is the one where all 4 meet.
