Question

Which of the following is not generally a reason why humans create boundaries?

Answer 1

Answer: C) Increased access to an area

Explanation:

Borders are geographic boundaries between different states. The United States, for instance, has land borders with two states: Canada and Mexico.

Countries form borders so as to determine precise boundaries between the two territories. The purpose of a border is to ensure security, safety and protection, but also to limit the movement of people, animals or goods into and out of a particular country. Therefore, increased access to an area is definitely not a reason why humans create borders, as they create them for the very opposite reason.
