popper70,

There are currently 50 states in the United States of America.

However, in addition to the 50 geographical states, there's also the State of Confusion, the State of Anxiety, the State of Frustration, the State of Grace, and a few others that just don't get the same press.

Sorry ... just kidding ... the devil made me do that. :D :D

Don't believe it popper. There is no State of Grace.

;)

But there are 3 that are referred to as "commonwealths"
Kentucky, Virginia, and Rhode Island (I think RI is the third)
So the answer could be 47 depending on how you chose to answer it.

Uh.... I was pretty sure that there were four commonwealths that are part of the U.S. and that they are Penssylvania, Massachussetts, Kentuky, and Virginia.

Additionally, there are two other commonwealths associated with the United States (in the form of unincorporated territories): Puerto Rico and the Northern Marianas.
