Neutral zones refer to areas that remain politically and socially impartial. Synonyms for this term include "no-man's-land", "buffer zone", "middle ground,", "no-go zone," "gray area," and "demilitarized zone." Each of these terms suggests an area where conflicting parties maintain a degree of separation or ceasefire. The concept of neutral zones is not limited to geopolitical conflicts, as it is also commonly used in social contexts such as sports, education, and business. In these cases, neutral zones may denote areas or positions that are impartial, detached, or unbiased. Whatever the context, the use of neutral zones can foster cooperation, communication, and compromise between opposing parties.
