Countries without a sea but have a navy force. A landlocked country is one that is logically surrounded by land. But sometimes the world just doesn't like making logic, because 9 landlocked countries currently have an active naval force, meaning that 35% of all landlocked countries have some kind of navy. Let us begin with Mongolia, which had the world's greatest navy around 700 years ago. The Mongol Empire is no longer what it once was, and modern Mongolia is sandwiched between Russia and China. The mighty fleet is made up of one tugboat, the Sukhbaatar 3, and her crew of seven sailors, who operate the ship on Lake Kozgal. Let us now turn our attention to the Bolivian Navy, which, in comparison to the Mongols, is quite serious, with 5,000 sailors and 173 boats. They patrol their rivers to catch drug smugglers. However, Switzerland has the most significant and interesting fleet of any landlocked country. Switzerland has a natural entry point to the world's oceans. Ships delivering cargo can cruise up the Rhine into the Dutch port of Rotterdam, connecting Switzerland to the global sea trade network.
