This list of sovereign states provides an overview of states around the world in Central Victory's present era, with information on their status and recognition of their sovereignty.

The states listed are divided into:

  1. The membership within the United Nations system column divides the states into three categories: member states, two observer states, and other states.
  2. The sovereignty dispute column indicates states whose sovereignty is undisputed and states whose sovereignty is disputed.

Compiling a list such as this can be a difficult and controversial process, as there is no definition that is binding on all the members of the community of nations concerning the criteria for statehood. The list is intended to include entities that have been recognized to have de facto status as sovereign states, and inclusion should not be seen as an endorsement of any specific claim to statehood in legal terms.
