          I found many articles about Treaties in TEL, but I didn't want to scan through them looking for the number of Treaties.  So I Googled it.  Scrolled down to www.state.gov/documents.  Found "Treaties in Force as of January 1, 2012.:  This is a 489 page on line listing of Treaties in force.  There were usually several treaties listed per page.  My guess is there are about 1500 Treaties in force.

Teens feel empowered reading dystopian novels.  They have a deeper appreciation for their lives and the people they love.
