National Borders in Your Nation?

[Smoya]

Which nations does your nation border and and what type of land border is your nation?

Open border: There is generally not much security at the border. People have the right to travel across two land nations without much requirements (visa, passport, etc). The government usually doesn't care who goes in or out.

Regulated border: People may travel across the border if they desire, but must reach the requirements. There is a stronger presence of border patrol and law enforcement. Governments usually don't care who leaves the country, but who comes in the country, or visa versa.

Hard border: Hard borders either have heavy restrictions of who can enter the nation. They may include a strong presence of security, strong regulations, wired fences, or strong walls.

Militarized border: People cannot travel across the land borders. There is a strong military presence guarding the border.

Smoya borders two countries - Farendale and Nanovia. They are both hard borders. The border with Nanovia has always been militarized, since of the poor relations the nations have had (however, relations are beginning to improve). Smoyans may not drive or walk into Nanovia, and only certified Nanovians can drive/walk in.

The border with Farendale is a different story. For decades, Smoya has had peaceful relations with Farendale, thus for many years the border was regulated - people can travel in and out as they pleased as long as they had a passport coming into Smoya. However, with the recent coup of the Farendale government creating a national socialist reich in Farendale, borders were closed and Smoyans were forbidden to travel into Farendale as Farendale citizens may not travel into Smoya.

Altogether, Smoya has a militarized border.

[Nueva Uruguay]

The Communist Oriental Republic has regulated borders. Persons entering the nation are required to show their passport, and must not be from an enemy nation.

Exceptions:
-Orientopia is a customs union, and people are allowed to pass freely between member states.
-The Communist Oriental Republic shares borders with the region of Benmerica. This border is heavily militarised.

[Jankenjin]

The Triune Republic's borders are rather amorphous. The nations bordering the Republic, collectively known as the Janeknjin Free States, are a motly bunch of petty republics and despotates, none of which are a significant military threat to the Republic. Half of them are vassal states whose governments are heavily influenced by the Republic, and most of the others mind their own business. Also, the rights of autonomy and secession is listed in the Triune Republic Constitution. Many of the Republic's border provinces are autonomous and almost Free States themselves. So, occasionally an Autonomous Province will declare independence and become a Free State, and conversely every now and then a Free State will vote for accession to the Republic as an Autonomous Province. Some have hopped in and out of the Republic many times over the years. Added to this, the demarcation of a Province's borders is set by the Province and its neighbors rather than by the central government, so it's not unheard of for border Provinces and Free States to swap territory. The result is, most Jankenjin would have a hard time saying just exactly where the border IS in some parts.

This loose, almost undefined border not as big a problem as you might think. The Triune Republic Constitution bases citizenship on residency, so there's no "illegal alien" issue. If a Jankenjin immigrates from a Free State, after six years of continuous residency she becomes a Citizen of the Republic with full voting and all other civil rights. So there's really no need for us to militarize or regulate our borders.

[New Hirizionburg]

New Hirizionburg has military forces guarding the border, however people can leave the country if they want

[Kolle Imperium]

We have a hard border

[Auzkhia]

We have open borders with countries such as Vatican City, Switzerland, France, Belgium, Netherlands, Denmark, Poland-Lithuania, Romania, and Bulgaria; they are all in the Schengen Area.
Some officials may be stationed at the border to enforce our traffic laws. Albania has regulated borders

[The Children of Mama]

Xenos aren't allowed in without Mama's permission.

[Mama adds: My Children are a space-faring civilization, so there's not really a "border" per se, just the boundary of the space around my Children's "gardens", the artificial worlds they live on. I monitor it constantly, and members of the other civilizations nearby know better than to try to cross it. At least, not without contacting me first and giving a really good explanation why they have business in my Children's space. I don't tolerate trespassers.]

[Tolmakia]

We have open borders with the UK. But more accurately in-between open borders and regulated borders. Though the UK is one of our major allies, security is still important no matter what.

[Tawakina]

Tawakina's land borders Kingsley Bedford, of which for the most part has a completly relaxed (albeit non-existant) border control. Crossing from Lunyx to Tawakina on foot through the Tanyx Channel Tunnel is possible, but is strongly advised against since being hit by a train going 300km/h is not a fun way to die.

[The Dutch Reich]

Militarized. We will gun down any non-Reichsman who tries to enter, and any Reichsman who tries to leave.

[The Fascist American Empire]

Four words: Great Wall of China.

That pretty much describes it. Extremely militarized.

[Kernan]

Kernan has been invaded multiple times so the government has mandated that, in their words "Until the dissolution of the Kernian state, Anti-government forces seize the border or any other occurrence disrupting the government control of its borders, Kernian's borders are hearby closed to immigration and emigration. To enforce this the Kernian Army has been stationed at border crossings to prevent violation of this rule. Any offenders are subject to extreme force and execution without trial. Any foreigners spotted will be arrested and deported back to their country regardless of its internal situation"

[Alizeria]

Alizeria is an island nation, so borders don't really apply as such.

That said, although Alizeria will welcome tourists from almost anywhere for 90 days, immigration requirements are extremely strict.

[Orveleca]

We are an island.

[Stormwrath]

Stormwrath borders two countries: Carenina in the south and Solotana in the east. Both are open borders due to the Tervalia Free Travel Policy set up by the Tervalian Union. However, if an immigrant comes from outside of the Tervalian Union, he/she must have his/her visa and passport checked by the authorities.

[Obeyistan]

The national boundaries of Obeyistan are heavily militarized. No one enters and no one leaves without my say-so and not a single person has ever left Obeyistan alive or dead. Escapees are always brought securely back in and executed for attempted escape. Entering Obeyistan is a lot easier, however, but those who enter on their own volition become a prisoner automatically and can never leave Obeyistan.

[Zapatista de chias]

Chias itself is a archipelago of islands and has no land border however on its colonial territory known as North Ondora that is currently undergoing a insurgency from the indigenous population meaning that there is a high military presence but with the correct paperwork you would be able to pass freely.

[Davao and Mati]

Davao and Mati is bordered by two countries since the Partition of Mindanao in 1899 as The Philippines became independent from the Spanish Rule

Dabawenyo-Filipino Border: it is heavily secured as the terrorist groups like the CPP/NPA and etc. are the reason why we have a very tight border in order to protect our neutrality

Sulu-Davao Border: It is a normal border crossing with medium level security and both countries are neutral since 1707

[Spearmint Island]

Since we are an island, our borders are pretty open.

We do require that anyone entering the country meet certain fitness criteria so that we know they are fit for work, but this is pretty self regulating since the only way to get here is to swim and the next closest land mass is 400 miles away.

We intend to open up trade and possibly migration routes with the use of shipping in the near future, and this has prompted many to call for tougher patrols at our ports, at which time we will probably adopt a regulated border approach.

[Pakra]

We have hard borders with some nations and regulated with others.

[Calupak]

We're an island nation and therefore have no land borders, however we have very strict regulations for those who wish to visit our country and permanent settlement for foreigners is forbidden.

[Yukonastan]

A sort of halfway between open and regulated borders. Almost everyone is accepted, but border security forces are fairly large.

Militarized border, only tourists are allowed in for a week maximum, tourists are given a return ticket and if they do not give the ticket back within a week they are executed. Illegal Immigrants are also executed too.

[Kernan]

I like how you mentioned the executions as an afterthought like "Oh yea, they also get shot."

My nation borders five nations. These nations are Treko, the Democratic States of Europe, Sjovenia, Sedikal and the Grand Russian Federation.

The Democratic States of Europe, Sjovenia and Sedikal all have open borders, whilst Treko has a regulated border.

Last but not least, the Grand Russian Federation has a hard border.
