I found a List for other countries in Wikipedia. I used it to for my country geo codes.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_3166-1 Each country has a link for the ISO_3166-2 codes (states/provinces) (not available for every country) Guido 2007/2/26, Rupert Howell <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
Hi Jonathon, I used to work for The Office for National Statistics here in the UK. UK Geography is a constantly changing headache. They have got quite a good description why on their website. http://www.statistics.gov.uk/geography/default.asp They also have a list of legal names, codes etc.. http://www.statistics.gov.uk/geography/faq_names_codes_legal.asp Rupert Howell Provolve Ltd Technopole Kingston Crescent Portsmouth PO2 8FA Tel: 020 8144 7877 E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Web: www.provolve.com -----Original Message----- From: Jonathon -- Improov [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 26 February 2007 13:07 To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Country names and state/county/province names follow ISO? Andrew, I can't find any comprehensive ISO 3166-2 listings either. The URL (statoids.com) I mentioned seem to have information to ISO 3166-2, probably because the author actually bought the ISO 3166-2 databases from iso.org at http://www.iso.org/iso/en/prods-services/iso3166ma/05database/index.html . I haven't verified this yet. Anyway, I heard the UK counties are a tricky thing to track, like say for Cleveland that is no longer existent but is still thought to exist by many folks living near that area. Ie, if I take out Cleveland in OFBiz data (assuming it was there), many UK users would complain.
