the representation of names of historical countries" (August 1997), that

I had heard that this standard was withdrawn, but I can't be sure about

How is ths related to Unicode ?
One possibility is though the Regional Indicators, but they are
defined by the unstable ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 codes.
ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 code elements, once withdrawn, are not reused for 50
years. That seems relatively stable to me.
