Countries that border Mozambique

6 land neighbours: Eswatini, Malawi, South Africa, Tanzania, Zambia and Zimbabwe. Each one has a page of its own.

Why this one is hard

6 neighbours, and 6 pairs of them border each other too.

6 countries in Africa have more than its 6 land borders; it is the same as Burkina Faso, the Central African Republic, Cameroon, Algeria, Ethiopia, Guinea, Libya, South Sudan, Chad and South Africa. Of the 15 possible pairings among them, 6 are themselves borders, which is what turns a list into a knot. Tanzania is the most connected of them, with 8 land borders of its own. All of them are on the Africa map with Mozambique, and on the world map with everyone else.
