Liechtenstein is double landlocked, requiring passage through at least two other countries to reach the nearest shore.

Thanks I couldn’t tell

having no access to the sea is different from just being landlocked
most of these countries do have access to the see through the river system they can freely use

Many of those countries have access to the ocean through rivers like the Danube

I live in Switzerland, perhaps 10 km from the Rhine river port in Basel. Special Rhine sized container and fuel ships navigate here from Rotterdam and the Atlantic. So, I suppose landlocked is not inaccurate, but the Rhine provides sea access

Although Moldova does not have a sea coast, it does have access to the sea through the sea port of [Giurgiulești](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Port_of_Giurgiule%C8%99ti), at the mouth of the Prut River. It allows ships with up to 7 meters draft.

These countries all have access to water. They don’t have sea access with a coastline, but all the countries on the Danube have access to the Black Sea as it’s an international waterway.

Bosnia and Herzegovina has sea exit by the city of Neum.

Not sure about Russia’s new name, seems a bit weird.

I think landlocked countries tend to be poorer. They didn’t participate in trading when ships were the main mode of transport for trading and they got a bit left behind

Ukraine will join the landlocked club soon 😊

Bosnia lucky to not be on this map thanks to Croatia generously allowing them a metre of coastline.

For Macedonia is really not a problem cause Thessaloniki is like 200km from the farthest town, and there’s a railway to there. It’s basically our port. When we were in a bit of a spat with Greece we also had many other countries to choose from, like Bulgaria and Albania. The infrastructure is still not as it should be to those ports as Thessaloniki is the easiest.

What do you mean by sea access? Never heard of rivers?

access to the sea and having a coastline are 2 separate things.
Rivers navigable by large vessels alter “land locked” status.

Fun fact: on older Austrian maps, mountains are 2 meters higher than the same mountains on German maps. Why? Mountains are measured “above sea level,” and Austria had a port on the Mediterranean Sea in Trieste, which is about 2 meters lower than the Atlantic Ocean, where Northern Europe measures its mountains.
