Country Borders
Use the new outline map style "CountryBorders".
In[1]:=

GeoGraphics["World", GeoBackground -> "CountryBorders"]Out[1]=

The country borders can also be given at other times. This is part of North America in 1803, just before the Louisiana Purchase.

GeoGraphics[
 GeoRange -> {Entity["Country", "UnitedStates"], 
   Entity["Country", "Mexico"]}, GeoGridLines -> Automatic,

The "CountryBorders" map style can be combined with other GeoGraphics elements, and its basic directives can be modified.
