<br/>
it is true many of the places in our pictures are in europe<br/>
<br/>
but there are boundary points you can visit all over the world<br/>
<br/>
so if you wish<br/>
<br/>
let us know where you are & we can suggest some points to try in your neighborhood<br/>
<br/>
<br/>
<br/>
<br/>
<br/>
about the fate of the old markers when the boundaries they are standing on are changed<br/>
<br/>
there is no single rule or universal procedure that is followed<br/>
<br/>
<br/>
<br/>
often former international markers continue to mark internal boundaries in the country that has acquired them<br/>
<br/>
<br/>
<br/>
but if no boundary at all remains on their spot the old markers are usually removed to avoid the confusion that would arise if they werent removed<br/>
<br/>
& in that case they sometimes make their way to local museums<br/>
<br/>
or might even be pounded into rubble on the spot <br/>

<br/>
&gt; Could not believe the amount of interest in this....... I wish i <br/>
<br/>
&gt; lived in europe so it would be easier to visit some of the places in <br/>
<br/>
&gt; all of your pictures.<br/>
<br/>
&gt; <br/>
<br/>
&gt; A question since there has been so many shifts in europe over history <br/>
<br/>
&gt; are ant of the old boarder markers still in existance or have the <br/>
<br/>
&gt; government ripped them out when new lines were drawn??<br/>
