Countries of the world to create your life’s magical journeys
The urge to travel stemmed from early childhood years reading the national geographic magazines. Recently there’s been swath of information available on internet so you don’t have to wait for periodic magazine releases. Personally use the countries region classification for planning my travels. Each of the continents due to their sizes get depicted in their respective North/South/East/West zones in some cases.
The count for number of countries can vary depending on whether you consider UN recognized or Olympic game participants. In total there are anywhere between 195 to 215 countries in the world.
