How many States does the United States consist of?
Correct answer: 50

Toni
Smith, What are the other 2???

The US also have territories/not incorporated into the United States (different from states)
It has Guam, Northern Marina Islands and American Samoa in the Pacific Ocean.
And also Puerto Rico and US Virgin Islands in the Caribbean Sea.
Some people suggests making Washington D.C. (DC for District of Columbia) as a state but there are many difficult challenges to resolve it if it was to be a state
It is not a state right now

Hawaii and Alaska are the two other states.

TAMTAM, I'd be very curious to know what you think the other "50" are. Fascinating.

Are they not said to be 51?! who is fooling who here...?

You might hear Americans say "the lower 48" this excludes Alaska and Hawaii.
