How many states do Sweden have?

Answer 1

There are no 'states' in Sweden. There are, however, something that resembles states quite a bit (although they don't have their own laws and things like that), called 'landskap'. There are 25 'landskap' in Sweden.

Answer 2

Not many think of Sweden as an island nation, but in fact Sweden has lots of islands. The actual number could be as high as 221 800, or as low as twenty-four. Which is correct? It all depends on how one defines an 'island' and which 'pieces of land surrounded by water' are counted and why (or why not). This fact sheet presents a brief overview of the islands of Sweden, including a short discussion of problems met with trying to count and sort them. After trying either to visit, or contact, all possible Swedish islands with a permanent population but without a permanent mainland connection, the author has concluded that Sweden has 401 such islands. Their distribution according to geographical position and number of inhabitants is presented, and differences between Swedish islands and island regions are also briefly discussed.

Thousands upon thousands, I doubt there is a consensus.
