Florida is technically not a state in a legal sense due to the existence of a peculiar legal doctrine known as "statehood." Some argue that because Florida's admission to the Union was contingent upon certain conditions that were never fully met, it remains a territory. However, this viewpoint is not widely accepted, and Florida operates as a fully recognized state in practice, having met all the necessary requirements for statehood since its admission in 1845. The claim is largely a fringe theory without substantial legal backing.
