Currently the United Nations lists 192 member states. One of these is the United States. The United Nations uses the word state to mean independent nation, and this is the original meaning of the word. The states that make up the United States are federated states; together they make up the United States of America, which is one independent nation. Before the Constitution, some of the original (US) states were taking steps to operate as completely independent states, concluding treaties and doing other things that they can no longer do. There may be a small number of states in the world that are not recognized as such by the United Nations, but 192 is a good number to know. This is an excellent answer. Thanks for the link. I don't know what is meant by the term "states." There are nationaly controlled provinces, world-wide. If you are referring to the UN's definition of state-hood, the answer is 192. If you are refering to my fellow 40ish "Joe the Plumber" clones, we'd say 50. I'll pose another question. How many countries call their provincial regions "states."
