I see your disagree, and I raise you a link. :)

UK is the abbreviated form of United Kingdom. As such, it should be
in the content of the tag, or else using the abbr element is
unnecessary. However, I have no clue as to whether the class country-
name is appropriate for country codes, which seems to be the issue.
I was just commenting on the general html.

I disagree. But then I would I guess.
My thinking was:
The class of the element is "country-name". So the content is "United
Kingdom". But the title of the United Kingdom, it's pretty clear to
me, is "UK".

I do:
<abbr class="country-name" title="UK">United Kingdom</abbr>
when I want a country code.
That looks like abuse of the "abbr" tag, to me.
