4. NOTES AND CLARIFICATIONS

I didn’t include any country whose sovereignty is currently under widely international dispute as Kosovo, Palestine or Taiwan. I’ll include them once they make it to the United Nations as official members.
The State of Palestine, UN observer member, can not be included as a sovereign country because its recognition is limited and it is not a completely independent country (part of it is under Israeli occupation). More info [HERE].
Kosovo is not a territory recognized by international unanimity (claimed by Serbia). More info [HERE].
The Western Sahara is a territory colonized for the most part by Morocco and its sovereignty is in dispute between the Moroccan people and the self-proclaimed Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic. More info [HERE].
Taiwan and Hong Kong are not independent or internationally recognized territories (claimed by China). More info [HERE] and [HERE].
French Guiana is an overseas territory belonging to France (it is not a sovereign country).
England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland are part of one official country: the United Kingdom.
Greenland is not a country. It belongs to Denmark (European country).
Holland appears on the list with its official name: Netherlands.
