Etymology
The term 'landlocked' originated in the mid-19th century, combining 'land' and 'locked' to describe a geographic location completely surrounded by land. Landlocked countries often face challenges in terms of accessing international trade routes and maritime activities due to their lack of direct access to the sea.
