Atlanticbordering

Atlanticbordering is a term used to describe countries, regions, or territories that have a direct coastline on the Atlantic Ocean. This geographical designation encompasses a wide range of nations across multiple continents.

On the eastern side of the Atlantic, European countries such as Portugal, Spain, France, the United Kingdom, Ireland, Norway, and Denmark are considered Atlanticbordering. In Africa, nations like Morocco, Mauritania, Senegal, Gambia, Guinea-Bissau, Guinea, Sierra Leone, Liberia, Ivory Coast, Ghana, Togo, Benin, Nigeria, Cameroon, Equatorial Guinea, São Tomé and Príncipe, Gabon, the Republic of the Congo, Angola, the Democratic Republic of the Congo (though its coastline is very small), Namibia, and South Africa all face the Atlantic.

To the west, the Americas also feature a significant number of Atlanticbordering countries. In North America, Canada and the United States have extensive Atlantic coastlines. Moving south, countries like Mexico (Gulf of Mexico, which connects to the Atlantic), the Bahamas, Cuba, Haiti, the Dominican Republic, Jamaica, and the entire eastern coast of Central America, including Belize, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama, and Colombia, are Atlanticbordering. Further south, the entirety of South America's eastern seaboard is Atlanticbordering, including Venezuela, Guyana, Suriname, French Guiana, Brazil, Uruguay, and Argentina.

The Atlantic Ocean's vastness means that countries bordering it engage in diverse economic activities, including fishing, shipping, tourism, and energy production. These nations also share historical and cultural connections, often shaped by centuries of maritime interaction and trade across the ocean.
