The Baltic states are covered on the west and north by the Baltic Sea -- which gives the region its name, on the east by Russia, on the southeast by Belarus, and on the southwest by Poland and an exclave of Russia.
Balkans, also called Balkan Peninsula, lies in the easternmost part of Europe\'s three great southern peninsulas, and is usually characterized as comprising Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Kosovo, Macedonia, Montenegro, Romania, Serbia, and Slovenia; with some parts of Greece and Turkey belonging to the region as well.
Generally, the Balkans are bordered on the northwest by Italy, on the north by Hungary, on the north and northeast by Moldova and Ukraine, and on the south by Greece and Turkey -- or the Aegean Sea(depending on how the region is defined, as per Britannica).
The Balkans are watered by the Adriatic Sea in the west, the Ionian Sea in the southwest, and the Black Sea in the east.
