Imagine you and your best friend both want to sit in the front seat of a car. You draw a line on the floor with chalk, but your friend doesn't think it's fair, so now you're arguing about whose side of the line is better. That’s like border disputes between countries: they draw lines on maps, but sometimes those lines cause big fights.
Examples
- Neighboring countries argue over a mountain that lies exactly at the edge of their maps.
