Territorial Boundaries

Territorial boundaries are the defined borders that separate one geographic area or political entity from another, such as countries, states, or cities. They establish legal jurisdictions, recognizing where one authority's control ends and another begins. These boundaries can be marked physically—like fences or walls—or legally defined through maps and treaties. They are essential for governance, resource management, and identity, helping prevent conflicts by clearly outlining the extent of each area's sovereignty and responsibilities.
