#botswana #zambia #geography

Did you know Botswana and Zambia share one of the shortest international borders in the world — just about 150 meters long?
For decades, people thought they didn’t even touch. Then, maps, treaties, and satellite data proved they actually meet — for less than the length of two football fields — at the confluence of the Zambezi and Chobe Rivers.

In this 60-second short, I’ll explain:
🌍 How the world almost missed this border entirely
🚤 Why it matters for trade and the Kazungula Bridge
📏 And why this tiny border changed the map of Africa forever

If you love quick explainers that make geography fun and mind-blowing, you’re in the right place.
