there are 6 islands in Africa so if you count the islands and the countries in Africa it will bring you to a total of 53.
Currently, there are between 47 and 55 countries on the continent of Africa. The most accurate count of countries for the continent of Africa is 55. This includes all internationally recognized territories and states on the continent. The variation is a result of disputed territories and inconsistencies around the inclusion of island nations off the coast of Africa.
