Brunei faces the South China Sea, along the north-west coast of the island of Borneo, four to five degrees north of the Equator. On its landward side Brunei is both surrounded and split into two by Sarawak, a state in Malaysia.
Most of Brunei is within the Borneo lowland rain forests ecoregion that covers most of the island but there are areas of mountain rain forests inland. It is also the only sovereign state completely on the island of Borneo, with the remainder of the island belonging to Malaysia and Indonesia.
