Your question is somewhat difficult to answer,as there is no one right answer, becuase many sources offer differents answers....,, so depending on your source, some say that there are 189, 191, 192, 193,194or 195 independent countries in the worl today.... according to the US Department!!!! There are 194 independent countries around the world..... The United Nation has 192 including Montenegroand Serbia the two newest nations. Vatican and Kosovo doesn't included... (as of May 1, 2008) While World Almanacs use 193 countries, which is probobly the best answer.

By Most Accounts, The Are 194 Countries in the World http://geography.about.com/cs/countries/... Now that is a question that's somewhat difficult to answer, as there is no one right answer. Many sources offer different answers, and depending on the source, there are 189, 191, 192, 193 or 194 independent countries in the world today. http://www.worldatlas.com/nations.htm There are 194 countries in the world today. Unless you don't count Taiwan. http://www.infoplease.com/askeds/many-co... 193 states with general international recognition: 192 member states of the United Nations (UN). 1 state with general international recognition but not UN membership, governed by the Holy See (a UN permanent observer): Vatican City. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_cou... I believe the correct answer is 194

the last time i counted, it was 180. but with new countries appearing, like those small states declaring independence from russia, this number would increase.
