How to use "Bordering" in context?
When determining the physical and economic boundaries of a piece of land, humans generally look to the natural features surrounding the area: rivers, lakes, mountains, and forests. However, in some cases-more commonly in rural areas-humans also create boundaries by marking the edges of fields and plots of land. In some cases, these boundaries may be based on traditional land uses-such as farming or grazing-while in others they may be established for other reasons, like the natural boundaries of highways or railroads.
Nevertheless, no matter what the motivation, all boundaries have the potential to affect both the social and natural dynamics of an area.
