A Robinson projection world map shows the entire world at once, which readily shows the whole globe (including countries, the outline of continents, political boundaries of different countries, oceans, seas, and other details) as a flat image. This projection was devised by Arthur H. Robinson back in 1963 for creating general-purpose world maps. The National Geographic Society (NGS) replaced the earlier Van der Grinten projection in 1988 and started using the world maps in Robinson projection. 

There are 195 countries in the world, as per the United Nations. While 193 countries are UN member states, 2 are non-member states (The Vatican or Holy See and the State of Palestine).
