    As of writing Canada and Denmark are no longer single land border countries due to the island border created to resolve the border despute.

      @Lord Takyon If you're talking about the Parsley Massacre, that crime is just a tip of the long and complicated history that both countries have endured. We can’t ignore that this specific genocide was one of the worst crimes against humanity of the 20th Century.
      Since when the whole island was a Spanish colony, passing over the time Haiti became a French colony and ending with its independence on 1 January 1804, relations between both countries have been rocky since the Haitian Independence and its ideology that "the island is one and indivisible." Haitians occupied the Spanish side of the island after it proclaimed independence from Spain in the Ephemeral Independence (1 December 1821 - 9 February 1822), and “unified” the island from 9 February 1822 to 27 February 1844, and to consolidate the independence, the Dominicans fought for another eleven years against the Haitian invaders.
      Everything that people not well-versed with foreign history does is condemn the DR for a genocide that was planned and executed by Rafael Leonidas Trujillo Molina and the Dominican Armed Forces. I see it important for people, either familiarized with their own history, like Dominicans and Haitians, or studying history that’s external to your own, like Americans, or Europeans to fact-check and analyze the available sources to have an objective view on foreign policy, history, and diplomatic relations.
      I exhort you to read through an unbiased lens and look for historical sources of both countries, for not everything is bright in one side and dark in the other. Both countries have shades of gray. However, I'm neither surprised nor shaken by your Americentric or Eurocentric views on foreign history and diplomacy.

    1:52 actually, and very recently, Canada gained a new neighboring country, Greenland. Greenland, like England, is a country within a country, and it is within Denmark. So basically there was this one tiny arctic island equally between Canada and Greenland. They had a friendly border dispute about the island for around 50 years before they decided to split the island down the middle.
    And that is why Canada borders Greenland

Its within the netherlands, which is completely surrounded by belgium, which is completely surrounded by the Netherlands.

    technically, If you count saint pierre and miquelon, A french overseas territory nearly touching the Canadian island / Province of newfoundland as a bordering country, Then that would mean Canada would be bordering 3 countries. And you could also say that Greenland borders Canada, as many parts of Greenland are nearly touching The Canadian territory of Nunavut, which means that you could say Canada borders 4 countries.

    • @iwillstealbradyandlockhimi3523

    You can also have a "sort of technically" Wales and Scotland as well, since they are countries within the country of the United Kingdom

    Denmark has Sweden as an option aswell. Even though they don't connect there is a bridge in between them going from one country to the other

    Saying this because no one else has as far as I can tell, but Canada shares a border with France because of Saint Pierre and Miquelon. 🇵🇲

    You can acullay drive from Sweden to Denmark. You can do it from the Øresund Bride, which connects Malmø and Copenhagen.

    Denmark has a bridge to Sweden, which had been standing for over a decade by the time this video was made.
