provincial borders

Regional boundary markers

Provincial borders are the boundary lines that separate provinces from one another within a country, marking where one provincial jurisdiction ends and another begins.

These borders determine which provincial government has authority over a given area, affecting matters like taxation, education, and healthcare administration.

The river forms a natural provincial border between the two regions.

Unlike international borders, provincial borders typically allow free movement of people and goods.
