Don’t cheat. Do you know how many countries there are in the world?

First, you can't ask a question like that and not expect me to look it up. My initial reaction was around 200. That seems like a plausible answer without being over the top. As it is, I'm very close though the question is apparently a complicated one.

I won't tell you the real answer though I might just comment with it.

For some reason I've always thought the answer was 200. Maybe it is remnants of school information, most of which has been forgotten.

I read that. Apparently there are some like 3 I think that aren't part of the UN... I know Vatican City is one of those countries but I don't remember the others.
