The following is a list of countries and regions of the world.

There are 193 members of the United Nations (the two nations that are not members of the United Nations are Kosovo and the Holy See/Vatican City).

Areas or regions that are not generally recognized as nation status (usually because they are being directly administered by other nations) are also included.
