Amines and their basic nature...

The amines ... Aliphatic and Aromatic types are present in organic studies. They posses the basic character because of the presence of nitrogen atom which is having one lone pair of electron and therefore they usually acts as lewis base. The basicity order goes on differently depending upon the type of group attached with them at specifically ortho , meta , para position. 
When we are talking about their basic strength it is always maximum for para isomers since this isomer is most stable in nature and hence the lone pair of nitrogen is completly free for possessing lewis base character.
Whereas, ortho isomer is less basic because of ORTHO effect.
