From the Antiquity people used natural sources of the relief to separate their countries. These we are calling physical boundaries. For instance the river Danube is the natural (or physical) border between my country Bulgaria and Romania (Europe, Balkan Peninsula).

There are also political borders, built by the humans themselves (look at the straight lines on the map separating Nevada from Utah, Libya from Egypt etc.)

From the famous borders-fortifications I will mention

I agree with Albena. One thing to keep well in mind, however, is that these assignments are given in order to give you experience in doing research. If indeed you are stumped at the outset, then your teacher needs to explain the research process to you more clearly. Telling her about your difficulty might be helpful.
