Since each country determines what its time zone (offset from UTC) will be and if and when to observe Daylight Saving Time/ Summer Time, they are almost always political borders. However, within countries that cover enough longitude to have multiple time zones, like the United States, where people work or get most of their radio and local TV stations from has a lot to do with it. For example, a lot of people who live near the northwest corner of Indiana work in Chicago, so five or six counties in that corner of Indiana are on Central Time. Sometimes they use a sparsely populated part of a state to separate time zones. I've noticed, however, that the extent to which the U. S. and Canada have multiple time zones within states and even within counties is more the exception than the rule. Places like Mexico, Brazil, Australia (with one exception), Russia, Mongolia, Kazakhstan and Indonesia do not split individual states, provinces, oblasts, or whathaveyou into multiple time zones (although there are ten Mexican cities along the U. S. border that start and end Daylight Saving Time on the same dates as the U. S., while the rest of their states change their clocks on the same dates as the rest of Mexico).
Your question needs clarification. Adjacent time zones are always one hour different. Are you asking how the border between time zones is established? Are you asking why do we have time zones?
Time zones do not have capitals. Time zones are regions where a common established time is used.
Michigan is divided between two time zones. The four counties of Upper Michigan that share a land border with Wisconsin are in the Central Time Zone. The rest of the state is in the Eastern Time Zone.
The zones at an incident should be cordon off to give time to the authorities to attend to the disaster.
THERE ARE TWO TIME ZONES IN BETWEEN BOSTON AND LOS ANGELOS.

There are 6 time zones between Chicago (CDT) and Berlin (CET).
Kazakhstan is divided between two time zones, UTC+5 hrs., which is known as Aqtobe Time, and UTC+6 hrs., which is known as Alma-Ata Time. The time zone boundary is the eastern border of Aktyubinskaya.
Adjacent time zones are time zones that share a common boundary, just as adjacent countries share a common border and adjacent apartments share a common wall.
8 time zones
There is a 6 hour time difference. It is actually 7 time zones different, as some time zones are not 1 hour.
Their was altogether two treaties that established the border between the United States and Canada the first was the Treaty of Paris of 1783 which settled the basic border, then the Webster- Ashburton Treaty of 1842 that settled the boundary between Maine and Canada, in 1844 the land dispute of the Oregon Territory was settled with the United Kingdom, Canada being a part of it at the time which established the present border between the state of Washington and Canada. Then the last time it was altered was in 1903 with a tribunal involving the United Kingdom, Canada and the United States, which settled the border between Canada and Alaska. That was the last time the border between the United States and Canada ever changed.
