Talk:Navies of landlocked countries

Austria

Austria has a handful of boats under its flag. Shouldn't it be mentioned in the article? Thanks. 93.215.81.183 (talk) 07:23, 16 September 2012 (UTC)

Since 2006 Austria doesn't have a navy anymore. --Dharion (talk) 04:34, 29 August 2014 (UTC)

Comments

Shouldn't more reference be made to the obvious ego/national pride issues involved? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.24.209.199 (talk) 15:36, 19 October 2009 (UTC)
Please specify. With the exception of Bolivia (where it is already mentioned), I am not aware that any of these navies serve other than defence needs, usually because international borders consist of rivers or lakes.Davidships (talk) 11:53, 29 April 2010 (UTC)

Navy in foreign seaport?

Many countries without a coastline have a navy in a foreign seaport. I added Czech Republic and Slovakia, but there are surely others, someone should check. It should also be added an incomplete list advise on the top of the article

Landlocked

"LANDLOCKED": Although the difference of view about whether Caspian states are landlocked is made clear in every case, the statement "the Caspian does not connect to the ocean" is misleading. As is hinted at under Azerbaijan, the route via the Rivers Volga and Don, which are joined by canal, is navigable. Seagoing commercial ships regularly take this route to the Black Sea and western ports. Edit and footnote added to page. Davidships (talk) 20:08, 16 April 2009 (UTC)

Abolished?

Czechoslovakia abolished its navy in 1959. I am therefore removing them from the list. Passportguy (talk) 00:21, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
