World Nations Reach 195

[sarntuhari]

United Nations - There are 192 members of the United Nations.

U.S. Department of State - The United States' State Department recognizes 194 independent countries around the world.

Ultimately, the best answer is that there are 195 countries in the world.

They have been created out of these past empires - Mongol Empire, Russian Empire, British Empire.

During the Muslim conquests of the 7th and early 8th centuries, Rashidun armies established the Caliphate, or Islamic Empire, one of the largest empires ever.

During its peak, the Spanish Empire had possession of the Netherlands, Luxembourg, Belgium, most of Italy, parts of Germany, parts of France, and many colonies in the Americas, Africa, Asia and Oceania. With the conquest of inland Mexico, Peru, and the Philippines in the 16th century, Spain established overseas dominions on a scale and world distribution that had never been approached by its predecessors (the Mongol Empire had been larger but was restricted to Eurasia).
