I've come up against that often. It drives me crazy (and I'm from one of the two countries that do get listed). It seems that about 1/3 of people think there are only two countries in North America, another 1/3 think there are noly three (this time including Mexico) and no more than 1/3 of the people I've met (even North Americans themselves) know that there are dozens of countries in North America (37 countries and territories), which includes everything north of Colombia, Venezuela and the Guianas.\n\nIf you want to be proactive, you should write to the editors of the web sites that you've seen it in. Education is the only way to defeat ignorance!

El Salvador which is located on the "belt of fire" in Central America.  It is a very small country (14, 718 square miles) and it has 14 volcanoes. So that is about one volcano per 1000 square mile. Anywere you go in the country you can see a volcano at all times.

192 independent countries are members of the U.N., but that doesn't include the Vatican City - which is technically a country - who have chosen not to join.\n\nThere are 192  different countries that the United States recognizes, but it gets tricky when you talk about Taiwan. There are those that would argue that Taiwan isn't really a coutnry (like China, who claims that it is a Chinese province). \n\nEven though Taiwan was a member of the U.N. up until 1971, it is not recognized as a country because of politcal reasons.  \n\nSo if you count Taiwan as a country (though it isn't internationally recognized as one) and the Vatican City, there would be 193.\n\nTo John C.: You have to remember that when you are counting countries, places that are governed by other countries, like Puerto Rico, the U.K., Bermuda, Palestine and others, don't count because they are actually provinces or colonies.

El Salvador\nThe Republic of El Salvador (Spanish: República de El Salvador, IPA: [re'puβlika ðe el salβa'ðor]) is a country in Central America with a population of approximately 6.9 million people. It is bordered to the west by Guatemala, to the north and east by Honduras, and to the south by the Pacific Ocean. El Salvador is the most densely populated nation on the American mainland (especially in its capital, San Salvador) and also the most industrialized country in the region. The country was named after the Spanish word for "The Savior" and its territory was known prehispanically as Cuscatlán.

Colorful land between Mexico, Honduras, and Belize.  Terrible underemployment, corrupt from the bottom to the top, and little chances of success as a nation.  All of Central America should have been one nation not the cut up melange they are.
