La legge è legge

Borders is a very fascinating subject in a today’s political geography. Don’t you think it
interesting to find out how one country end and another one starts  after particular invisible line would be
drown on the land. Unintentionally come to the mind one of Franco-Italian movie classics La
Legge è legge  ( The law is a law 1958), and a first intro by the narrator behind the screen wittingly
asking  a the film viewer of the peculiarity  of particular border between France and Italy. The answer is so trivial and obviously simple which makes the
move a marvel of European cinema in a mid-20th century. The border looks like this because the land which belongs to France should be French, and
the land which belongs to Italy got to be Italian. That would be so simple if
it would not be so hard, and borders tend to change its geographical positions
on a pretty regular bases. Check my recent discovery in a world of maps, and
you will understand what this talk is about. If you want to see the map in details 

open it  up in a separate window by clicking right button on the mouse and piking

the appropriate option  on the menu. Then use the scroll wheel on the mouse to

zoom the map in and out , while holding Ctrl button on the keyboard. 

Enjoy!!!!
