Countries that border Palestine
3 land neighbours: Egypt, Israel and Jordan. Each one has a page of its own.
Egypt borders Palestine too, but is drawn on the Africa map rather than this one — the border is real, it just spans two maps.
Why this one is hard
3 neighbours to keep in the right order.
23 countries in Asia have more than its 3 land borders; it is the same as Indonesia, Cambodia, North Korea, Malaysia, Oman and Vietnam. Of the 3 possible pairings among them, 2 are themselves borders, which is what turns a list into a knot. Israel and Jordan are joint most connected of them, with 5 land borders each. 2 of them are on the Asia map with Palestine — Egypt is on the Africa map instead. The world map is the one where all 3 meet.
