Countries that border Jordan

5 land neighbours: Iraq, Israel, Palestine, Saudi Arabia and Syria. Each one has a page of its own.

Why this one is hard

5 neighbours to keep in the right order.

8 countries in Asia have more than its 5 land borders; it is the same as Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Israel, Laos, Myanmar, Syria and Uzbekistan. Of the 10 possible pairings among them, 4 are themselves borders, which is what turns a list into a knot. Saudi Arabia is the most connected of them, with 7 land borders of its own. All of them are on the Asia map with Jordan, and on the world map with everyone else.
