The below list contains both states and dependent territories, see country, state, nation state for some explanation of the difference between these. There is a list of dependent territories; dependent areas should be removed from this list and moved to their proper place. Other articles focus on imaginary countries, micronations and former countries (see List of extinct countries, empires, etc).
The WikiProject Countries is an attempt to formulate a template for the country articles and expands articles with public domain sources (see Status of the porting of the CIA World Factbook, Status of the porting of U.S. Dept of State info).
