Question

Belgium has borders with ________.
(A) Netherlands, France and Germany
(B) France, Germany and Spain
(C) Spain, Netherlands and France
(D) Germany, Spain and Netherlands

Answer 1

Hint: Belgium is a federal state bordering the North Sea and it is located in Western Europe. Its total area is 30,689 sq km and it is ranked 136th according to the area. It has total land borders of 1,297 km.

Complete step-by-step answer:
Belgium has three main geographical regions. These are the coastal plain in the north-west, the Ardennes uplands in the south-east and the central plateau. The coastal plain mainly consists of polders and sand dunes. The areas of land which are close to or below sea level and have been reclaimed from the sea are called Polders. The central plateau is the second geographical region that lies further inland. This is a smooth and slowly rising area which has many fertile valleys and it is irrigated by many waterways. One can also find rougher land here, including the caves and small gorges. The Ardennes is the third geographical region which is more rugged than the first two. It is a thickly forested plateau and is very rocky which is not very good for farming, and it extends into northern France and in Germany where it is named Eifel. This is the place where more of Belgium's wildlife can be found. Belgium shares its border with France, Germany, Luxembourg and Netherlands.

Thus, option (A) is correct.

Note: The Signal de Botrange is considered to be Belgium's highest point which is located in this region at only 694 m (2,277 ft). The Ardennes, Campine and High Fens are the notable natural regions.
