Some time back we had some discussion about the plethora of
alphanumerics that can be used to designate the various countries of
the world.
Andreas Herzfeld's site at
http://home.t-online.de/home/flaggenarchiv/countr~1.htm
is a fine resource for this sort of information.
There are some errors and omissions in his table, so I've revised and
expanded his data for our 192 core countries (no doubt introducing
some errors and omissions of my own!), and uploaded an XLS summary to
the file area (called Concise Country Codes.xls) for the reference
of anyone who's in the slightest interested.
