Comprehensive Global Directory Lists Every U.S. State, Territory and Nation
Today a new digital database went live, cataloguing all 50 U.S. states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands and other federal regions, as well as more than 250 countries and territories worldwide. The platform promises a seamless zip‑code lookup for any location in the United States and a complete reference for international jurisdictions.
The database, compiled from official government records, includes Alabama through Wyoming, plus Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, American Samoa, Guam and the Northern Mariana Islands, and extends to every sovereign nation from Afghanistan to Zimbabwe. It also lists Canadian provinces and territories, Mexican states, and assorted British and French overseas territories.
Officials say the resource will support logistics, emergency response and market research by delivering instant, authoritative location data. “We have eliminated ambiguity in geographic identification,” the project lead told reporters. The system updates monthly to reflect boundary changes.
Analysts expect the directory to become the default reference for developers, marketers and governments seeking reliable place information. The full list is accessible online without charge.
