Why is the United States the only country in the country list to be abbreviated?
I feel like it should be written out like the rest... "United States of America"
Even "United Kingdom" is spelled out, not UK. |

Here's 2:
- Google's Ad-words account management page has "United States"
- Yahoo's Language & Content Selection for "My Yahoo" |

While this is a good topic, I would think people would be making more of a big deal over the fact that there's "Korea" and not "KOREA, DEMOCRATIC PEOPLE'S REPUBLIC OF" & "KOREA, REPUBLIC OF"
or there's not a Puerto Rico, or there's not a U.S. Virgin Islands..just a British. I don't think the people in South Korea would want to be considered the same country as the North. Same with Puerto Rico...while it IS a U.S. territory, people there tend to like being called Puerto Ricans, not Americans...and they're from Puerto Rico, not the United States

Here are my comments I posted in closed forums on this issue (dated April 17th, 2002). I used the following sources and compared them at that time. But as you know they could be changed in time...
http://www.un.org/Depts/Cartographic/english/geoname.pdf
http://www.din.de/gremien/nas/nabd/iso3166ma/codlstp1/db_en.html
quote:
I went forth and checked the list in Snitz, DIN list and UN Territory list. I did only take the ones with 3 char ISO code in the UN list.
These are my findings:
To be added to the Snitz list (they exists both in DIN and UN list)
SAMOA (see also below)
ANTARCTICA (somehow questionable, UN defined this continent multi-national, bu some countries were against this as far as I can remember. See FRENCH SOUTHERN TERRITORIES)
BOUVET ISLAND
COCOS (KEELING) ISLANDS
CONGO (There is also another one: CONGO, THE DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC OF THE)
COOK ISLANDS
COTE D'IVOIRE
FRENCH SOUTHERN TERRITORIES
GUAM
HEARD ISLAND AND MCDONALD ISLANDS
MARSHALL ISLANDS
MAYOTTE
MICRONESIA, FEDERATED STATES OF
NORFOLK ISLAND
NORTHERN MARIANA ISLANDS
PALAU
PUERTO RICO
SVALBARD AND JAN MAYEN
TOKELAU
To be deleted from the Snitz list (they do not exists in DIN and UN list)
Azores
Borneo
Canary Islands
Ivory Coast
Saint Barthelemy
Saint Croix
Different naming, which must be en error in Snitz list (they are the same in other lists)
Western Samoa (Snitz) => AMERICAN SAMOA in others (there is also a SAMOA to be added as mentioned above)
Camaroon (Snitz) => CAMEROON
Cape Vere Islands => CAPE VERDE
Fed Rep Yugoslavia => YUGOSLAVIA
Macao => MACAU
Vietnam => VIET NAM
Different naming, just for info/further consideration (they are the same in other lists shown in capitals)
Vatican City =?> HOLY SEE (VATICAN CITY STATE)
Iran =?> IRAN, ISLAMIC REPUBLIC OF
Laos =?> LAO PEOPLE'S DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC
Libya =?> LIBYAN ARAB JAMAHIRIYA
Myanmar (Burma) =?> MYANMAR
South Sandwich Islands =?> SOUTH GEORGIA AND THE SOUTH SANDWICH ISLANDS
Syria =?> SYRIAN ARAB REPUBLIC
Taiwan =?> TAIWAN, PROVINCE OF CHINA
Other special cases (explaination below)
Isle of Man (code:XIM) does only exist in UN list
Korea & Republic of Korea (Snitz): The exact names are KOREA, DEMOCRATIC PEOPLE'S REPUBLIC OF and KOREA, REPUBLIC OF
Somalia Northern Region & Somalia Southern Region (Snitz): There is only one SOMALIA
UNITED STATES MINOR OUTLYING ISLANDS does only exist in DIN list
Virgin Islands (United Kingdom)(Snitz): The exact name is VIRGIN ISLANDS, BRITISH and there is another VIRGIN ISLANDS, U.S. to be added
PALESTINIAN TERRITORY, OCCUPIED does only exist in DIN list
There are a couple of related issues with that:
- The issue is strictly political. There are people who feel to belong to countries which are NOT in these lists. See here for a discussion on this: http://forum.snitz.com/forum/topic.asp?ARCHIVE=true&TOPIC_ID=6685
- Technically, there is a upgrade problem. The country name is kept as is in the database. If you delete/change the country names, old database records can become obsolate.
- There is the issue of being free to use these lists. I coundn't answer the question asked by Doug G at that time: "is the 3-character ISO list available free?"
For me, a man belongs to a country where he feels to belong to, even if it does not exist in the UN list. But such cases cannot be used in the official Snitz Code, but Snitz can provide a simple way to add such country names.

I integrated suggested changes and decided to save others a spot of effort if they want to simply cut and paste. Here's a replacement "inc_countrylist.asp":

The points I posted above have been only for discussion, not for direct implementation because some of them are questionable! E.g. Ivory Coast vs Cote d'Ivoire, the French version I think...
I don't advise them to be applied directly because it will cause incompatibility problems for previous members as I indicated above.

I think this is something to be decided by the Dev-Team because it is mainly politics. I already changed that code a bit. I'll re-check the list, put the new ones, re-think about the changes/eletions (perhaps add some upgrade code) but leave the final decision to the Dev-Team.
I think, I cannot bear the whole brunt by myself, if there is a mistake there  .
How would you do?
