See borders as a radar

The border radar shows which countries lie in each direction. You can see at a glance whether a border point is just a few kilometers away or far outside your current surroundings.

Sorted by distance

The country list ranks nearby countries by straight-line distance. In San Diego, Mexico can appear as the closest neighboring country; in Toronto, the United States becomes the natural reference. For each country, you see the distance to the nearest border point and the bearing in degrees.

Sorted by distance
