List of states
There are many lists in the world. One of the most important list is the
list of states. We're living on the planet Earth. And here are many states on it. We should know them. And what is the definition of the word "
state"? A state is "
political organization of society, or the body politic, or, more narrowly, the institutions of government. The state is a form of human association distinguished from other social groups by its purpose, the establishment of order and security; its methods, the laws and their enforcement; its territory, the area of jurisdiction or geographic boundaries; and finally by its sovereignty. The state consists, most broadly, of the agreement of the individuals on the means whereby disputes are settled in the form of laws" (
