Apologies on the delay for the NSW/Tasmania land border piece. The covid silliness makes searching for anything related to state borders a huge mess.

The next work in progress is about the fabulously funny story of why Victoria and Tasmania share a land border.

Here's the first piece, one that @funkwit and I wasted far too much time on a number of years ago to answer the question "does the ACT have a coastline?" and the answer is quite a trip, and I'm not going to spoil it for you. wrongborders.substack.com/p/does-the-act…

@newGarlick Oh yes. The Belgian border is absolutely going to get its own post because it's all sorts of "oh you think your home owner organisation is bad, you have no idea"

And at some point we'll talk about Belgium. In particular the Belgian/Dutch border, which makes you go wait what, why and how and what and no really, what?

And I'll get around to discussing how a Pope Alexander VI in 1494 kinda sorta set up some of Australia's state borders. He was an Actual Borgia Pope. Yeah, the ones I'm sure Netflix will do a series about if they haven't done so already.
