ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 - ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 codes are the best known part of ISO 3166-1 and subsequent use as most of the country codes for Internet domain names. Uses and applications Starting in the mid-1980s, the two-letter codes have been used in domain names on the Internet, where they are used to form country code ccTLDs, with some exceptions e.g. Great Britain, where ICANN did not follow the ISO 3166-1 and used UK instead of GB. The two-letter ISO 3166-1 codes form the first two letters of the three-letter ISO 4217 standard codes for currencies. They are also used for International Bank Account Numbers, the ISO 6166 International securities identification numbering (ISIN) system, ISO 7372, ISO 9375, the ISO/IEC 7501-1 machine readable travel documents standard, UN/LOCODE.

ISO 3166-3 - ISO 3166-3 ISO 3166-3 is an international standard that defines codes for outdated ISO 3166-1 country codes and is part of ISO 3166. If after 1974 countries merged (e.g. East and West Germany) split up (e.g. Czechoslovakia) changed the main part of their name the codes were withdrawn from ISO 3166-1 and with addition of two letters put in ISO 3166-3. ISO 3166-3 is four-digit-alphabetic and starts with the code that was withdrawn from ISO 3166-1. Obsolete ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 codes The following is a list of obsolete ISO 3166 two-letter country codes, included here for reference. Note that many of these codes were withdrawn before the introduction of the Domain Name System, and so were never used as top-level domains. In the following list, the.
ISO 3166-1 - ISO 3166-1 ISO 3166-1 as part of the ISO 3166 standard provides codes for the names of countries and dependent areas. It was first published in 1974 by the International Organization for Standardization and defines three different codes for each area: ISO 3166-1 alpha-2, a two-letter system, has many applications, most notably for Internet top-level domains. Standards derived from this code are: ISO 3166-2, codes for subdivisions such as states and provinces. ISO 3166-3, codes to replace obsolete alpha-2 codes. ISO 4217, codes for monetary units. ISO 3166-1 alpha-3, a three-letter system. ISO 3166-1 numeric, a three-digit numerical system, is identical to that defined by the United Nations Statistical Division. A country or territory generally gets new alpha codes if its name changes, whereas a new.
ISO 4217 - ISO 4217 ISO 4217 is an international standard describing three letter codes to define the names of currencies established by the International Organization for Standardization, ISO. The first two letters of the code are the 2 letters of ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country codes. This eliminates the problem caused by the names Dollar, Franc and Pound being used in dozens of different countries, all with wildly differing values. The standard also defines the relationship between the Major currency unit and any Minor currency unit. Often, the Minor currency unit has a value that is 1/100 of the Major unit, but 1/10 or 1/1000 are also common. Some currencies do not have any Minor currency unit at all. Mauritania does not use a decimal division of units, here.
ISO 6166 - ISO 6166 ISO 6166 defines the structure of an International Securities Identifying Number (ISIN). An ISIN uniquely identifies a fungible security. Securities with which ISINs can be used include debt securities, shares, options, derivatives and futures. ISINs consist of two alphabetic characters, which are the ISO 3166-1 code for the issuing country, nine alpha-numeric digits (the National Securities Identifying Number, or NSIN, which identifies the security), and one numeric check digit. The NSIN is issued by a national numbering agency (NNA) for that country. Regional substitute NNAs have been allocated the task of functioning as NNAs in those countries where NNAs have not yet been established. ISINs are slowly being introduced worldwide. At present, many countries have adopted ISINs as a secondary measure of identifying securities,.

Achaea - to 96 inh./km² 2001 ISO 3166-2: GR-13 Map Achaea or Achaia is a district on the northern coast of the Peloponnese, stretching from the mountain ranges of Erymanthus and Cyllene on the south to a narrow strip of fertile land on the north, bordering the Corinthian Gulf, into which the mountain Panachaicus (1,902 m, the northernmost mountain range in the Peloponnese) projects. Achaea is bounded on the west by the territory of Elis, on the east by that of Sicyon, which, however, was sometimes included in it. The origin of the name has given rise to much speculation; one theory is that the Achaeans were driven back into this region by the Dorian invaders of the Peloponnese. Another Achaea, in the south of Thessaly, called sometimes Achaea Phthiotis, has been supposed.

Country code - and communications. Several different systems have been developed to do this. The most famous of these is ISO 3166-1. This standard defines for most of the countries and dependent areas in the world: two letter country codes: see ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 for current ones and ISO 3166-3 for obsolete ones, three-letter country codes, three-digit numeric codes. The two-letter codes are used as the basis for: ISO 4217 currency codes country code top-level domain names (ccTLDs) on the Internet: list of Internet TLDs etc. Country codes other than ISO 3166 include: The International Olympic Committee (IOC) three letter codes used in sporting events: list of IOC country codes, The coding system for car licenses plates under the 1949 and 1968 United Nations Road Traffic Conventions (distinguishing signs of vehicles in international traffic),.

Top-level domain - cases anyone in the world can acquire a domain in the ccTLD, e.g. in the case of Armenia (.am), Austria (.at) Cocos Islands (.cc), Niue (.nu), Samoa (.ws), Tonga (.to), Turkmenistan (.tm) and Tuvalu (.tv). This allows names like I.am, start.at and go.to. In other cases, only residents of the country or dependent area are allowed to have a domain in it, e.g. Canada (.ca) and Mongolia (.mn). Over 240 of these ccTLDs have been established, see List of Internet TLDs and [1]. They are based on two-letter ISO 3166-1 country codes, although there are several differences, explained below. The ISO 3166-1 codes EH and KP, although theoretically available as ccTLDs for Western Sahara and North Korea, have never been assigned and do not exist in DNS. Also, the new ISO.
List of Latin phrases - could say that Alan Turing was a computer scientist ante litteram, since the profession of "computer scientist" was not recognised in Turing's day. ;Ante meridiem (a.m.) "Before noon" -- in the period from midnight to noon ;Ars gratia artis "Art for art's sake" (motto of MGM) ;Ars longa, vita brevis "Art is long, life is short". This is the Latin translation by Horace of a phrase from Hippocrates, and is often used out of context. The art referred to in the original aphorism was the craft of medicine, which took a lifetime to acquire. ;Aurea mediocritas "Golden Mean" (in Horace, Odi, an ethical goal) ;Aut vincere aut mori "Death or victory" ;Ave atque vale "Hail and farewell!"

ISO 3166-2 - ISO 3166-2 ISO 3166-2 is the second part of the ISO 3166 standard. It was created for coding the names of subdivisions of countries and dependent areas. The purpose of the standard is to establish a worldwide series of short abbreviations for places, for use on package labels, containers and such. Anywhere where a short alphanumeric code can serve to clearly indicate a location in a more convenient and less ambiguous form than the full place name. US readers may wish to consider them as the equivalent of worldwide zip codes. Within the Wikipedia, the codes from the country pages link to the pages for the locations they identify.
