195

Let's welcome the 194th and 195th members of the international community... South Ossetia and Abkhazia!

#193 was Kosovo, by the way. They will join the 192 members of the United Nations shortly after hell freezes over.

Way to go ethnonationalism! 195 countries! Who could have thought? Can we push for 200? Darfur, anyone? South Sudan? Chechnya? Nagorno-Karabakh? Crimea? Trans-Dniestra? Another random eastern half of an Indonesian island? We can do it!
