Borders and what are actual countries and what are not are up for debate all around the world. Is Israel a country? Are North and South Ireland two different countries? Is the anarchist regions in Algeria a different country? Will Texas become its own country?

The number is around 200, but it's flexible. There are 192 countries in the UN, but the UN recognizes 2 independent nations: Vatican City and Kosovo. Taiwan is not recognized as an independent state.
