Guess the Location #69 (Set 5)

Use hints to identify the location. The hints are: (1) the locations with which the answer shares a land border; (2) the locations with which the answer shares a maritime boundary; (3) an indication of whether the answer is a sovereign state; and (4) conditionally, the initial letter of the answer. (See caveats below.)

Things to know:

1. When the answer is a sovereign state, borders are only given for the location’s principal land mass and its territorial waters, but not for overseas territories or overseas constituent parts.

2. Boundaries that run through rivers, lakes and the Caspian Sea are considered land boundaries. (By international agreement, the surface water of the Caspian Sea has no international boundaries — only the seabed does.)

If a location has both a land border and a maritime boundary with the same other location, only the land border is specified.
Locations with no land borders given are necessarily insular locations.
Locations with no maritime boundaries given (1) are landlocked locations; or (2) only have maritime boundaries with locations they also have a land border with.
The First Letter column is only valued when it is needed to distinguish between locations whose other hints are exact duplicates.
