==How many Countries in the world?==
The US State Department recognizes 194 independent countries around the world, but that list of countries reflects the political agenda of the United States of America. As an example, it includes Kosovo, but does not include Taiwan, as China claims that Taiwan (the ROC) is simply a province of China.

"As humans, it is our nature to be on a quest. Our origin is our past and we are heading for the future with multitudes of stopovers. There is no destination, just stopovers in our journey to discover ourselves. It is the journey that makes us who we are. The more emotion we pour into our journey the more we improve. Without emotion, we are nothing. Positive or Negative, we have to give it our all. We have the freedom of choice and the power to reason. The "Positive" or the "Negative" are simply the tools of our journey. Explore your surroundings. Experience the journey. Discover yourself. Be balanced and share because in the end, there is always accountability." Franklin Harry Maletsky
