There are 4 time zones in the continental US. Alaska and Hawaii each have their own time zone.
Time zones were officially established in the US on November 18, 1883 by the railroads in order to standardize schedules. This was known as the Standard Time Act, which divided the US into four time zones: Eastern, Central, Mountain, and Pacific.
