Countries that border United States
2 land neighbours: Canada and Mexico. 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 5th-most in the Americas — level with Belize, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Nicaragua, Panama, Suriname, El Salvador and Uruguay. None of its neighbours borders another, so there is no chain to walk — every one of them has to be learned on its own. Mexico is the most connected of them, with 3 land borders of its own. All of them deal on the Americas board alongside United States, and on the world board with everyone else in the Americas.
