Talk:List of sovereign states in 2007

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Adding more to the list

I'm trying to improve these lists by adding more information. I've added unrecognized states, dependent territories, and the four territories from List of special entities recognized by international treaty or agreement. I was considering making seperate pages for this information, but I figure adding them all here is the simplest option. The various kinds of territories are all separated, so someone just looking for sovereign states will still be able to find them quickly, but having more than just sovereign states makes it easier to include and categorize difficult countries like Rhodesia and Tibet.

Hopefully nobody minds this change too much, but I think it could make these pages a lot more versatile and valuable. Chet Fabulous 16:59, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

On second thought, that might have made the page a little too big to handle. I'm going to remove the dependent territories and special entities for now and just leave it at recognized and unrecognized sovereign states. (However, I do think having a similar list somewhere for dependent territories and colonies would be nice.) Chet Fabulous 17:59, 13 September 2007 (UTC)
