Countries that border Belarus
5 land neighbours: Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Russia and Ukraine. Each one has a page of its own.
Why this one is hard
5 neighbours, and 7 pairs of them border each other too.
10 countries in Europe have more than its 5 land borders; it is the same as Azerbaijan, Bulgaria, Switzerland, Croatia, Kazakhstan, Romania and Slovakia. Of the 10 possible pairings among them, 7 are themselves borders, which is what turns a list into a knot. Russia is the most connected of them, with 14 land borders of its own. All of them are on the Europe map with Belarus, and on the world map with everyone else.
