Lists of the 192 members of the United Nations are easy to locate, but how many countries are not members of the UN? One or two, depending on whether or not you consider Taiwain a country.

Taiwan In 1971 the People's Republic of China (mainland China) replaced Taiwan (also known as the Republic of China) in the United Nations.

Vatican City / The Holy See The independent papal state of 771 people (including the Pope) was created in 1929. They have not chosen to become part of the international organization.

Taiwan's 23 million citizens are not represented based on the question of its soverignty. Mainland China maintains that Taiwan is a part of China. Western Sahara is in dispute with Morocco, the Cook Islanders and Niue receive their representation via New Zealand by choice, and Vatican City while eligible for membership maintains only observer status.
