While the listing above is an authoritative listing of the independent countries of the world, it is important to note that there are also more than sixty Territories, Colonies, and Dependencies of independent countries. * The executive, judicial, and legislative branches of the State of Israel are all located Jerusalem so Jerusalem is the capital of Israel. Nonetheless, all countries maintain their embassies in Tel Aviv. While there are fewer than two hundred independent countries in the world, there are more than sixty additional territories that are under the control of another independent country. There are several definitions of territory but for our purposes, we are concerned with the most common definition, presented above. Some countries consider certain internal divisions to be territories (such as Canada's three territories of Northwest Territories, Nunavut, and Yukon Territory or Australia's Australian Capital Territory and Northern Territory). Likewise, while Washington D.C. is not a state and effectively a territory, it is not an external territory and thus not counted as such.

Another definition of territory usually is found in conjunction with the word "disputed" or "occupied." Disputed territories and occupied territories refer to places where the jurisdiction of the place (which country owns the land) is not clear. The criteria for a place being considered a territory are fairly simple, especially when compared to those of an independent country. A territory is simply a external piece of land claimed to be a subordinate location (in regards to the main country) that is not claimed by another country. If there is another claim, then the territory can be considered a disputed territory. A territory will typically rely on its "mother country" for defense, police protection, courts, social services, economic controls and support, migration and import/export controls, and other features of an independent country. With fourteen territories, the United States has more territories than any other country. The territories of the U.S. include: American Samoa, Baker Island, Guam, Howland Island, Jarvis Island, Johnston Atoll, Kingman Reef, Midway Islands, Navassa Island, Northern Mariana Islands, Palmyra Atoll, Puerto Rico, U.S. Virgin Islands, and Wake Island. The United Kingdom has twelve territories under its auspices. The United States Department of State provides a nice listing of more than sixty territories along with the country that controls the territory: Short-form name Akrotiri (see note 15) American Samoa Anguilla Antarctica Aruba Ashmore and Cartier Islands Baker Island Bermuda Bouvet Island British Indian Ocean Territory (see note 3) Cayman Islands Christmas Island Clipperton Island Cocos (Keeling) Islands Cook Islands Coral Sea Islands Curaao (see note 11) Dhekelia (see note 15) Long-form name Akrotiri Territory of American Samoa Anguilla (no long-form name) (no long-form name) Territory of Ashmore and Cartier Islands (no long-form name) Bermuda (no long-form name) British Indian Ocean Territory Cayman Islands Territory of Christmas Island (no long-form name) Territory of Cocos (Keeling) Islands (no long-form name) Coral Sea Islands Territory (no long-form name) Dhekelia FIPS Code Administrative (see note 1) Center Episkopi (see note United Kingdom AX 16) Sovereignty United States AQ Pago Pago The Valley None Oranjestad Administered from Canberra Administered from Washington, D.C.

Note 1: Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) 10-4 codes. On September 2, 2008 the National Institute of Standards and Technology withdrew FIPS 10-4 as a United States Government standard. No successor standard for country codes has been identified. Note 2: Antarctica consists of the territory south of 60 degrees south latitude. This area includes claims by Argentina, Australia, Chile, France, New Zealand, Norway, and the United Kingdom, the legal status of which remains in suspense under the terms of the Antarctic Treaty of 1959. The United States recognizes no claims to Antarctica. Note 3: Chagos Archipelago (including Diego Garcia). Note 4: U.K. Overseas Territory (also claimed by Argentina). Note 5: French Guiana, Guadeloupe, Martinique, Mayotte and Reunion are departments (first-order administrative units) of France, and are therefore not dependencies or areas of special sovereignty. They are included in this list only for the convenience of the user. The Department of Guadeloupe includes the nearby islands of Marie-Galante, La Desirade, and Iles des Saintes. Note 6: The French Southern and Antarctic Lands includes le Amsterdam, le Saint-Paul, les Crozet, and les Kerguelen in the southern Indian Ocean; the "Iles Eparses" (Bassas da India, Europa Island, Glorioso Islands, Juan de Nova Island and Tromelin Island) in the Mozambique Channel and western Indian Ocean; and the Frenchclaimed sector of Antarctica, "Terre Adlie." The United States does not recognize the French claim to "Terre Adlie" (see note 2). Note 7: The Bailiwick of Guernsey includes the islands of Alderney, Guernsey, Herm, Sark, and nearby smaller islands. Note 8: Under a Sino-British declaration of September 1984, Hong Kong reverted to Chinese control on July 1, 1997. It is now a semi-autonomous entity that exists pursuant to international agreement and maintains its own government apart from the People's Republic of China. Note 9: Administered from Oslo, Norway, through a governor resident in Longyearbyen, Svalbard. Note 10: Under the Sino-Portuguese Joint Declaration on the Question of Macau signed in 1987, Macau reverted to Chinese control on December 20, 1999. It is now a semi-autonomous entity that exists pursuant to international agreement and maintains its own government apart from the People's Republic of China. Note 11: The Netherlands Antilles dissolved on October 10, 2010. Curaao and Sint Maarten (the Dutch two-fifths of the island of Saint Martin) became autonomous territories of the Kingdom of the Netherlands. Bonaire, Saba, and Sint Eustatius now fall under the direct administration of the Netherlands. Note 12: South China Sea islands occupied by China but claimed by Vietnam. Note 13: The territory of Saint Helena includes the Island group of Tristan da Cunha; Saint Helena also administers Ascension Island. Note 14: South China Sea islands claimed in entirety by China and Vietnam and in part by the Philippines and Malaysia; each of these states occupies some part of the islands. Note 15: United Kingdom sovereign base area on the island of Cyprus. Note 16: The joint force headquarters, under the Commander of the British Forces Cyprus, administers both sovereign base areas from Episkopi. Note 17: The island of Saint Martin is divided: the northern three-fifths form the French collectivity of SaintMartin, while the southern two-fifths (Sint Maarten) is an autonomous territory of the Kingdom of the Netherlands.
