Travel: Countries of the world

This is a list of the countries of the world as of 4/22/06 and I found it at the following website: <http://www.nationsonline.org/oneworld/countries_of_the_world.htm>. It's as definitive as you get in an ever changing world... According to the website, "With the addition of Timor-Leste (East Timor) in May of 2002, there are now 193 independent sovereign states in the world, 61 dependent areas, and five disputed territories. " The website above lists country names in many languages too!

I’m through the “G’s”. Can’t find French Metropolitan to add to the list. Also, can’t get Georgia on the list.

You are doing great!

Thanks, I will be using this list too and thousands of others eventually too?

I’m a bit of an experienced traveller, see www.globosapiens.net/rangutan but never heard of that French Metropolis. They might mean either the C?te?Azure or Metropol de’?Paris which are fantastic entities but really only CITY-vs- PROVINCE disputes within the nation!

Georgia is now NOTONLY a state of the USA but also an independent country, in Asia but christian, south of the Caucas Mountains. Check again, i’m sure the country is already in the databank somewhere (or it may be mistakingly deleted by an american?)
