The ISO has specified two-letter ASCII codes for the
world's countries. These are summarized in the ISO 3166
two-letter country-code standard, given below.
As with the
language codes,
country codes are case-insensitive.
You may notice that these are the codes used, withinby the
Internet domain name scheme, for indicating 'country-based' domains
in an Internet address -- for example "ca" to indicate Canada in
the address "www.utoronto.ca".
Absent from this list are the
non-national names used in domain naming schemes: namely ARPA
(Old-style Arpanet--obsolete), COM (Commercial), EDU
(Educational), GOV (Government), INT (International),
MIL (U.S. Military), NATO (for NATO, soon to be obsolete),
NET (Network) and ORG (Nonprofit organization).
The use of these codes is discussed in Chapters 6 and 7 of
The HTML 4.0 Sourcebook.
