What is an artificial boundary? An artificial boundary is
a FIXED LINE generally following LATITUDE OR LONGITUDE LINES
. Example: The 49 N latitude line separates the US and Canada. Sometimes conquering countries impose boundaries on lands it has taken over.
What are man made boundaries?
Human-made boundaries are
lines drawn by governments
. They divide up countries, states, counties, and cities. Most of the time you cannot see them. They are imaginary lines drawn on a map.

are examples. Many times, political boundaries between countries or states form along physical boundaries. For example, the boundary between France and Spain follows the peaks of the Pyrenees mountains.
What are 2 examples of geometric boundaries?
Geometric boundaries are formed by straight lines (such as lines of latitude or longitude), or occasionally arcs (Pennsylvania/Delaware), regardless of the physical and cultural features of the area.
The Canada/US border along the 49th parallel
is an example of a geometric boundary.
