The current political map of the world reports that there are now about 230 states and territories in the world. Most of them are independent sovereign countries. States are classified according to various criteria - this can be the size of the area and population, political benchmarks, and much more. If you evaluate the map of the world from the point of view of geography, you will notice that not all states have such an advantage as being located by the sea. Geographically, conclusions can be drawn about social development and economics.

Access to the sea provides states with many advantages - from fishing to sea navigation and wide trade opportunities. It is also necessary to separately emphasize the tourist importance of proximity to the sea - for small states, tourist flow is practically the only way to ensure it.

Fisheries by the sea

In addition to rights, coastal states also have certain obligations - in recent years, maritime heritage has become more and more widespread.

From the point of view of the international maritime activities of each state, caring for the maritime heritage is a demonstration of the attitude of countries to the role in the geopolitical situation. The maritime heritage includes many elements and symbols - landmarks and natural heritage, scientific and research organizations, monuments and historical structures. Natural, historical and cultural heritage, one way or another associated with the sea and sea routes.

The Adriatic Sea is famous for its resorts - gentle entrances to the water, many tourist sites. The Adriatic is included in the union of the Mediterranean Sea. The name of the Adriatic was given by the ancient word Adur, which translates as "water". The climatic conditions here depend on the current, here the usual Mediterranean winds blow - mistrals, bora and sirocco, which significantly affects the temperature of the air and water. Venice is considered one of the most visited cities on the Adriatic coast, and the Adriatic is also popular for families.

The Adriatic Sea washes the coast of countries such as:

  • Albania
  • Bosnia and Herzegovina
  • Italy

The Andaman Sea is considered semi-enclosed - it is closed on all sides by Indochina and Malacca, and it is also limited by the Nicobar and Andaman Islands - a refuge for the aborigines. The largest port city is in Malaysia.

Andaman Sea on world map

The Andaman Sea washes the shores of the most interesting countries of Asia; here you can find both stunning fashionable resorts and nature, practically untouched by civilization. The main tourist destination on the Andaman Sea is Thailand. In recent years, according to travelers, Thailand has become too popular among tourists, and the main tourist vector is gradually shifting towards Indonesia and Burma.
The countries of the Andaman Sea include:

  • India
  • Indonesia
  • Malaysia
  • Myanmar
  • Thailand

Arabian Sea

The Arabian Sea is locked between Hindustan and the Arabian Peninsula. Monsoon phenomena are familiar to this sea coast, the temperature and climatic gap between different seasons is very strongly felt. The specificity of the structure of water bodies makes it possible to classify the Arabian Sea as a highly efficient region of the world ocean. The main tourist destinations here are Oman and India. Oman is called the turtle island - tourists from all over the world come here to see giant turtles. Europeans also frequent Goa, a haven of love and freedom on the Indian coast.

Baltic Sea

The Baltic is one of the young seas that appeared as a result of the destruction of glacial basins. The coastline is broken. This sea differs from many others in that in winter a significant part of the bays freezes over. Winter navigation is carried out using icebreakers. The Baltic Sea has a large number of commercial fish, there are also seals, and sometimes even sharks and whales come from the Atlantic. Historically, the Baltic is of great importance as a sea route.

The waters of the Baltic Sea wash the shores of nine countries that take part in the use of its resources. For the foreign northern Europe, a huge problem is the high concentration of residual oil products in the water of the Baltic Sea. All 9 countries prioritize this problem and allocate many resources, both material and human, to solve it.

Countries washed by the Baltic Sea:

  • Germany
  • Denmark
  • Latvia
  • Lithuania
  • Poland
  • Russia
  • Finland
  • Sweden
  • Estonia

* Moldova has a small stretch of coast (less than 500 m) at the mouth of the Danube, near the village of Giurgiulesti. At the end of 1996, she started building a commercial port there. But this requires at least another 4.5 - 5 km of the coastline on the Danube. For several years Moldova has been unsuccessfully asking Ukraine to cede such a plot to it.

The geographic location of the country has a significant impact on the level of its economic development. Most of the inland non-European countries are lagging behind in their economic development, because the lack of access to the sea makes it difficult to carry out their foreign economic activity.

The classification of countries can also be carried out by area, population and other indicators.

Leading ideas: the level of economic and social development of a country is largely determined by its geographic location and development history; the diversity of the modern political map of the world - a system that is in constant development and whose elements are interconnected.

Basic concepts: State territory and border, economic zone, sovereign state, dependent territories, republic (presidential and parliamentary), monarchy (absolute, including theocratic, constitutional), federal and unitary state, confederation, gross domestic product (GDP), human index development (HDI), developed countries, countries of the G-7 of the West, developing countries, NIS countries, key countries, oil-exporting countries, least developed countries; political geography, geopolitics, GWP of the country (region), UN, NATO, EU, NAFTA, MERCOSUR, APR, OPEC.

Skills: To be able to classify countries according to various criteria, give a brief description of groups and subgroups of countries in the modern world, assess the political and geographical position of countries according to plan, identify positive and negative features, note the change in GWP over time, use the most important economic and social indicators to characterize (GDP, GDP per capita, human development index, etc.) of the country. Identify the most important changes on the political map of the world, explain the reasons and predict the consequences of such changes.

Number and grouping of countries

Currently, about 230 countries and territories are highlighted on the political map. More than 190 of them are sovereign, i.e. politically independent states with independence in internal and external affairs.

Countries are grouped according to various criteria. More often than others, classifications of countries are used according to the size of their territory, population and the characteristics of their geographic location. In terms of territory, there are seven largest countries, with an area of \u200b\u200bover 3 million km 2 each, which together occupy about half of the entire earth's land. These are Russia, Canada, China, USA, Brazil, Australia, India.

In terms of population, the ten largest countries are distinguished, with more than 100 million inhabitants in each. They together account for 60% of the world's population. These are China, India, USA, Indonesia, Brazil, Russia, Japan, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nigeria. The world political map is dominated by medium and small countries. The smallest countries are called microstates (Liechtenstein, Luxembourg, Monaco).

According to the peculiarities of the geographical position, the countries are divided into coastal, peninsular, island, archipelagic countries. The latter group includes Japan, Indonesia, and the Philippines. Landlocked countries are particularly distinguished. This makes it difficult for these countries to use sea trade routes and resources of the World Ocean. There are 36 such countries in total.

The geographic location of the country has a significant impact on the level of its economic development. Most of the inland non-European countries are lagging behind in their economic development, because the lack of access to the sea makes it difficult to carry out their foreign economic activity.

The classification of countries can also be carried out by area, population and other indicators.

Forms of government

The republican form of government originated in antiquity, but it was most widespread during the periods of modern and recent history. In 1991, there were 127 republics in the world, but after the collapse of the USSR and Yugoslavia, their total number exceeded 140.

In a republican system, the legislature usually belongs to the parliament and the executive to the government. In this case, the so-called. a presidential republic, where the president heads the government and is endowed with very large powers (USA, a number of Latin American countries), and a parliamentary republic, where the role of the president is less, and the government is headed by the prime minister (Germany, Italy, India, etc.). A special form of government is the socialist republic (which arose in the 20th century in a number of countries as a result of the victory of socialist revolutions). China, Vietnam, North Korea, and Cuba remain socialist republics to this day.

The monarchical form of government arose in ancient times in a slave society. Under feudalism, this form of government became the main one. In later times, only the traditional, mostly formal features of monarchical rule were preserved. Currently, there are 30 monarchies on the political map of the world. Moreover, there is not a single one in America, 14 are in Asia, 12 are in Europe, 3 are in Africa and one is in Oceania. Among them are empires, kingdoms, principalities, duchies, sultanates, emirates, and the papal state of the Vatican.

The overwhelming majority of monarchies existing in the world today are constitutional. The real legislative power in them belongs to the parliament, and the executive power belongs to the government (Great Britain, Norway, Sweden, etc.).

Along with constitutional ones, there are still several absolute monarchies. In these states, the government or other authorities are responsible only to the monarch as the head of state, and in some cases parliament is absent altogether or is just an advisory body (United Arab Emirates, Oman, Kuwait, etc.). The so-called theocratic monarchies also belong to absolute monarchies. In addition to the Vatican, this is also Saudi Arabia and Brunei (the head of the secular and spiritual authorities in them is one person). Usually, the monarch's power is for life and is inherited, but, for example, in Malaysia and the UAE, monarchs are elected for a five-year term.

Great Britain is the world's oldest constitutional monarchy. The King (now Queen Elizabeth II) is considered the head of state, the judiciary, the commander-in-chief of the armed forces, the secular head of the state Anglican Church, as well as the British-led Commonwealth, whose members are more than 50 countries that were previously part of the British Empire (India, Canada, Sri- Lanka, South Africa, Kenya, Uganda, etc.); and in 15 of the Commonwealth countries, however, he is formally considered the head of state (Canada, Australia, New Zealand, etc.).

Form of government

reflects the administrative-territorial structure of states, the national-ethnic (in some cases also confessional) composition of the population. There are two main forms of the administrative-territorial structure - unitary and federal.

A unitary state is an integral state formation, consisting of administrative-territorial units that are subordinate to the central authorities and do not possess signs of state sovereignty. In a unitary state, there is usually a single legislative and executive power, a single system of state bodies, a single constitution. The overwhelming majority of such states in the world.

Federation is a form of organization in which several state entities legally possessing a certain political independence form one union state. The characteristic features of a federation that distinguish it from a unitary state are the following: the territory of the federation consists of the territories of its individual subjects (for example, states - in Australia, Brazil, Mexico, Venezuela, India, USA; cantons - in Switzerland; lands - in Germany and Austria ; republics, as well as other administrative entities - in Russia); the subjects of the federation are usually vested with the right to adopt their own constitutions; the competence between the federation and its subjects is delimited by the federal constitution; each subject of the federation has its own legal and judicial system.

In most federations, there is a single union citizenship, as well as the citizenship of union units. The federation usually has a unified military force, a federal budget. In a number of federations, the union parliament has a chamber that represents the interests of its members.

Federations are built on territorial (USA, Canada, Australia, etc.) and national characteristics (Russia, India, Nigeria, etc.).

A confederation is a temporary legal union of sovereign states, created to ensure their common interests (members of the confederation retain their sovereign rights both in internal and external affairs). Confederate states are short-lived: they either disintegrate or turn into federations (examples: the Swiss Union, Austria-Hungary, as well as the USA, where a federation of states was formed from the confederation established in 1781.

Table 6. Basic forms of government

Unitary Federation Confederation Others
- a single integral state formation, consisting of administrative-territorial units that do not have signs of state sovereignty. Administrative-territorial units within the federation have a certain political and economic independence. The members of the confederation, while maintaining their formal independence, have their own bodies of state power, but also create joint bodies to coordinate the military and foreign policy actions of the confederation. The Commonwealth is a more amorphous union of states than a confederation. The members of the Commonwealth are completely sovereign states. The community of states is created on the basis of an interstate agreement, strengthens the interstate relations of countries.
Most countries in the world: China, Czech Republic, Sweden, Egypt, etc. cm. tab. "Countries with a federal administrative-territorial structure" Switzerland CIS

Federal states, of which there are about 20 in the world, were created mainly on the basis of ethnic or national differences (Russia, Switzerland, India, Pakistan, Myanmar, Nigeria) or taking into account the historical peculiarities of the formation of statehood (USA, Canada, Mexico, Brazil, Venezuela, Germany, Australia, Federation of Micronesia).
