Travelers' Century Club List of Countries
Encyclopedia
The Travelers' Century Club list of countries is a list of 321 countries as defined by the Travelers' Century Club
according to its rules
established in 1970. The list is widely recognized
as one of the standard lists of countries and destinations that are politically, ethnologically or geographically different, and is one of the most commonly used lists for gauging travel to destinations beyond the UN members, along with the lists of Guinness World Records
, The CIA World Factbook and DXCC.
This list includes not only sovereign states but also certain territories, exclaves and island
groups. The club argues that "although some are not actually countries in their own right, they have been included because they are removed from parent, either geographically, politically or ethnologically" , based on their rules. The list is very roughly based on the amateur radio
DXCC award criteria for working 100 "entities".
