the difference between a political and a physical boundary is that a physical map shows geographical features like mountains and rivers while a political map shows boundaries. One is made by people(politicians), the other by nature. So , occasionally, a political boundary will be a straiight line but there are no straight lines in nature.

Sometimes, a river may run between two countries and thus becomes an example of a physical boundary serving as a political boundary.A mountain range may serve a similar purpose.
