Countries that border Lebanon
2 land neighbours: Israel and Syria. Each one has a page of its own.
Why this one is hard
2 neighbours to keep in the right order.
Its 2 land borders are joint 8th-most in Asia — level with the United Arab Emirates, Bangladesh, Bhutan, Indonesia, Kuwait, Mongolia, Nepal, Palestine and Yemen. Of the 1 possible pairings among them, 1 is itself a border, which is what turns a list into a knot. Syria is the most connected of them, with 5 land borders of its own. All of them deal on the Asia board alongside Lebanon, and on the world board with everyone else in Asia.
