Vermont and Texas were both truly independent Vermont actually fought against New York to maintain independence and had its own money coined. The republic of Vermont lasted from 1777 to 1791. Texas remained an independent nation after defeating Santa Anna and the Mexican Army at San Jacinto. Hawaii was an independent kingdom annexed by the US California was independent for one month after the Mexican American War. Western Florida and Western Tennessee ??? Only part of a state does not count. They would have been annexed had they not joined anyway. States who seceded and were slow to align themselves with the confederacy do not count either. They lost the contest to assure their Independence
they just fricken did
"I'm pretty sure just the United States... hence the US Constitution" - not true. Many Latin American countries when they became independent from Spain copied and translated into Spanish the US constitution word for word. However, they often did not follow the constitution because they did not have the same history and value system.
The states of the United States were either: *13 Preexisting independent American states that created the United States Government. *36 State governments created by the United States Government. *1 Independent country that joined the United States by treaty (Texas).
You have to tell us which two countries you mean so we can answer this.
There are currently fifty states in the United States of America.
No. It is divided into 50 independent STATES, not countries. It is one country.
Vermont and Texas
There are a few independent countries that were once ruled under the United States but are now free and independent of the US. These are, Micronesia, Marshall Islands, Palau, and the Philippines.
Canada & Mexico, which are countries, not states.
None. The US and Canada are two independent countries.
Two examples of a nation are the United States and Japan. Both countries have defined borders, a shared culture, history, language, and a system of governance that determines their sovereignty as independent entities.
The US shares borders with two other states (countries) - Canada and Mexico
According to the US Dept. of State there are 11 independent states that start with the letter A. They are:AfganistanAlbaniaAlgeriaAndorraAngolaAntigua and BarbudaArgentinaArmeniaAustraliaAustriaAzerbaijan
Canada and Mexico are the two countries that share a border with the United States.
The EU is an organisation which has 27 different independent countries as members. Ireland is one of those. This is different to the United States, where the 50 states are all part of one country. None of the US states are countries, and the USA is not an organisation. In the same way that Ireland is a member of the EU, the USA is a member of a number of organisations which have different countries as members, like the United Nations and NATO. There are many other organisations around the world which have independent countries as members.
The two countries that border the United States are Canada to the north and Mexico to the south.
No. Two states were created from other States (Maine, from Massachusetts; and West Virginia, from Virginia).
