Actually, it appears to depend on whose Authority record you're looking at.
The Canadians, Australians, and Israelis have it as a CorporateName (110), as

Hi,
Any transformation of a controlled vocabulary, either in format (MARC to
RDF) or in coverage (e.g. vom LCSH to DDC, MeSH, GND, etc.) has to
decide whether
(a) there is a one-to-one (or one-to-zero) mapping between all concepts
(b) you need n-to-m or even more complex mappings

Thanks for all the information and discussion.
I don't think I'm familiar enough with Authority file formats to completely
comprehend - but I certainly understand the issues around the question of
'place' vs 'histo-geo-poltical entity'. Some of this makes me worry about

*Hi and thank you Ross, Jonathan, and Andy,
I do wish someone from LC would answer Jonathan's questions for all codes
and geographic subdivision or subject implications. There's so much
self-inflicted pain I can go through trying to revive my cataloging days.
Here are some clarifications though:

Thanks Ross - I have been pushing some cataloguing folk to comment on some
of this as well (and have some feedback) - but I take the point that wider

Whether England means the free-floating geographic entity or the country
is not quite unknowable -- it depends on the MARC codes that accompany it.
The brief answer is this: a
