Note on the data. Admission dates are those on the United Nations list of member states, read on 3 October 2026 and parsed by script. A state that continues an earlier membership keeps the earlier date, as the list has it: the Russian Federation carries 24 October 1945. Vatican City, Palestine, Kosovo and Taiwan are not members and are not asked. The list was last checked on 3 October 2026.
