That's like asking how many countries in the world have only one time zone. Most of the smaller nations are in only one time zone. France, Monaco, Spain, Italy, etc.
The United States has six main time zones: Eastern, Central, Mountain, Pacific, Alaska, and Hawaii-Aleutian. These time zones help coordinate activities across the country and account for the variations in daylight hours. Daylight Saving Time is also observed in most states, except for Arizona (excluding the Navajo Nation) and Hawaii.
