Bolivia shares a border with Argentina. They got that wrong on this map.

And Paraguay does not share a border with Chile. Some South American shenanigans to be sure.

It's all rightfully Paraguay anyway. /s

France has a land border with Brazil - in fact, it's its longest border with any country. But I realize that non-contiguous countries pose quite a challenge for this type of layout.

France also borders... Canada. (They have a little island on the east coast)

Denmark (greenland) and Russia also border Canada.
