international border
Nations' dividing line
An international border is the boundary line separating two sovereign nations, marking where one country's territory ends and another's begins.
These borders may follow natural features like rivers or mountain ranges, or be drawn arbitrarily through treaties: We crossed the international border into Canada.
Border crossings typically involve customs and immigration checkpoints.
