Frequently asked questions
How many landlocked countries are there?
44 sovereign countries have no coastline. Kazakhstan and Azerbaijan border the Caspian Sea, but since the Caspian is an inland body of water they still count as landlocked.
Which countries are doubly landlocked?
Just two: Liechtenstein and Uzbekistan. Every country they border is itself landlocked, so you would need to cross two borders to reach an ocean.
Which continent has the most landlocked countries?
Africa, with 16 — including Ethiopia, the most populous landlocked country in the world.
