Borders of France


The borders of France are the international borders that the French Republic shares with neighbouring sovereign states. France has borders with 11 countries, totaling for all of France and for Metropolitan France.
In June 2015, Italian Prime Minister Matteo Renzi expressed repeated claims on some of the highest peaks of the Mont Blanc Massif territory: Dôme du Goûter, Pointe Helbronner and the tallest, Mont Blanc itself.
