The Great Lakes is surrounded by two countries, Canada and United States.
Michigan is a state that is almost surrounded by water, with the Great Lakes surrounding it on three sides - Lake Superior, Lake Michigan, and Lake Huron.
There are lakes, which are bodies of water completely surrounded by land (landlocked). Or, there are atolls. Atolls are islands of corals which surround a lagoon, some partially or some completely. Atolls are surrounded by water as well, which means they are just a circle of land surrounding and surrounded by water.
Either gulf or a sea
The Great Lakes are at the northern border of the United States, except Lake Michigan, which is completely in the United States. Needless to say, the Great Lakes are in the northern US.
The Great Lakes are not considered seas because they are inland bodies of freshwater surrounded by land, whereas seas are large bodies of saltwater connected to the ocean.
The Great Lakes do not have tides because they are not connected to the ocean. Tides are caused by the gravitational pull of the moon and the sun on the Earth's oceans, but the Great Lakes are freshwater bodies surrounded by land, so they do not experience the same tidal forces as the oceans.
No, Michigan is its own state that is right above Indiana and is surrounded by the 5 great lakes
GULF EXAMPLE: gulf of Mexico
Not just one state has the five great lakes. In fact, the five great lakes aren't all in just the United States. Both Canada and the USA have some of the five great lakes. The border crosses right in the middle of each of the lakes, so Canada and the USA both have parts of each of the lakes.

It is called an island.
No. Inland waters are rivers, lakes and dams surrounded by land. Some examples of these would be the Great Lakes, the Mississippi River or the Lake Mead.
