The Guyana-Venezuela Border Controversy
Venezuela's claim to its shared border with Guyana has been causing tension between the two countries for over a century. An effort has been made in the past to settle the dispute, but none were successful, including an 1899 arbitration and the Treaty of Geneva of 1966, signed by Great Britain and the governments of Guyana and Venezuela. Regardless, Venezuela continues to claim the border area of Essequibo.
