    Which country has a navy but no sea surrounding the country?

    Question #47529. Asked by 1SmartBlonde.

    Brainyblonde

    Bolivia a landlocked country, maintains a nominal navy, mainly because it used to have a coastline and lost it to Chile. Zaire also has a navy.

    This site lists Paraguay, Iran, Rwanda, The Democratic Republic of the Congo, Burundi, Malawi, Uganda, Moldova, Laos and Mongolia.

    That Switzerland has a small lake patrol - it's a branch of the army rather than an independent service, but it has its own naval ensign and Kazakhstan, Azerbaijan and Turkmenistan are planning to strengthen their small Caspian fleets, which currently have 5 to 15 ships each.

    Objection to BrainyBlonde's site: Iran's got a long maritime coastline, and Zaire (or whatever it is now) has a very short coast in between Angols and Cabinda, which is also Angola! Bolivia's navy will be on Lake Titicaca. Shouldn't need many admirals, but keeps them off the streets.
