You are correct sir. The Azores belong to Portugal and are not a sovereign state.

I don't think there are four countries in the world that fit your criteria -
there are plenty of island groups around like Azores or Andaman
Islands, but these are all dependencies of countries (Portugal and
India respectively). The only countries are as said before Afghanistan
and Azerbaijan, unless a country now refers to itself as African/Aian
Republic of Somewhere! Who challenged you to find four?
