The United States of America consists of 50 states, a federal district (Washington, D.C.), and five inhabited territories: Puerto Rico, Guam, the U.S. Virgin Islands, American Samoa, and the Northern Mariana Islands. Each state is a sovereign entity with its own government, constitution, and jurisdiction, while the federal district serves as the nation’s capital but does not have full representation in Congress.
