Non-UN member states that are not recognised by all UN states

List the countries that are counted as countries by some people, while others do not count these countries. Countries are not listed in alphabetical order. Please read all the instructions and explanations before commenting/criticizing/arguing/disputing.
These countries are non-UN member states and have also not been recognised by all members of the United Nations. Countries that are only recognised by other non-UN member states are excluded from this list.
Countries excluded from this list are UN member states that have one/two other member states disputing their sovereignty, eg. China, South Korea, Israel, Cyprus, Armenia.
Countries in this list are non-UN member states that are recognised by at least one UN member state. Example: One of these countries have been recognised by more than 100 UN member states but is still not a full-fledged member of the UN.

How come Palestine is on this list which is recognized by many UN members but Somaliland and Transnistria are not which are not even recognized by a single country. i do not understand what is your criterion regarding this list.

Countries such as Transnistria, Artsakh/Nagorno-Karabkh are not recognised by any UN member states and are only recognised by other non-UN members states. Example: Artsakh/Nagorno-Karabkh have only been recognised by Transnistria, South Ossetia and Abkhazia, all of which are not UN member states. Meanwhile, Somaliland is not recognised by any other states, whether UN member states or non-UN member states. Thus, Somaliland is excluded from this list. Sorry if there is any confusion, and thank you for clarifying this point. You can also refer to en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_states_with_limited_recognition if you have any other queries.

Interesting quiz. If you're including Abkhazia, South Ossetia, and Northern Cyprus, then why not include Transnistria, Nagorno-Karabakh, and Somaliland?
