| Above, it is stated "•Length only consists of land borders, not including any borders on water". Canada's border length is listed as 8893 km, which certainly contains a lot of borders on water. If you add up the international border lengths of each state that borders Canada, you arrive at 8890 km (Alaska 2,475 + Michigan 1,160 + Maine 983 +
Minnesota 880 + Montana 877 + New York 716 +
Washington 687 + North Dakota 499 + Ohio 235 +
Vermont 145 + New Hampshire 93 + Idaho 72 +
Pennsylvania 68). That is pretty much in line with this quiz. However, all of Michigan's 1,160 km of border is water, all of Ohio's 235 km of border is water, all of Pennsylvania's 68 km of border is water, most of Minnesota's 880 km of border is water, most of New York's 716 km of border is water, and some of Washington's 687 km of border is water. So, Canada's border length is way overstated. Same is true of the United States, and probably Mexico as well. |
