Module:ISO 3166/doc

This module returns a country's or subdivision's code (alpha-2, alpha-3, numeric) or name (ISO, non-ISO) from ISO 3166 from a varity of inputs (alpha-2, alpha-3, numeric, name, ISO-name, alternative names). The module also removes junk from the input.

Countries (ISO 3166-1)
All three types of ISO 3166-1 codes (alpha-2, alpha-3 and numeric) work as inputs to, as well as to   (which can therefore also be used to convert between different code types). Use codetype to output alpha-3 or numeric codes in  instead of the default alpha-2 codes.

Name
To get the common name use the name function
 * &rarr;
 * &rarr;
 * &rarr;

ISO Name
To get the common name use the name function with isoname = yes
 * &rarr;
 * &rarr;
 * &rarr;

Alpha-2
To get the alpha 2 code use the code function
 * &rarr;
 * &rarr;
 * &rarr;

Alpha-3
To get the alpha 3 code use the code function with codetype = 3
 * &rarr;
 * &rarr;
 * &rarr;
 * &rarr;
 * &rarr;

Numeric
To get the numeric code use the code function with codetype = numeric or use the numeric function
 * &rarr;
 * &rarr;

Subdivisions (ISO 3166-2)
Inputs to  must be valid ISO 3166-2 codes, i.e. the country's alpha-2 code for the first part, and up to three alphanumeric characters for the second part. They may be given normally (with a hyphen between the parts), or split between two unnamed parameters. For, the first parameter is the country name (or any of its three codes, like above), and the second the subdivision name.

Code (alpha-2)
To get the alpha-2 code of a subdivision use the code function with parameter 1 being the country and parameter 2 being the subdivision
 * &rarr;
 * &rarr;
 * &rarr;

Name
To get the name of a subdivision use the name function with parameter 1 being the country and parameter 2 being the subdivsion or parameter 1 being the subdivsion code
 * &rarr;
 * &rarr;

isoname works for subnational entities as well; keep in mind that ISO 3166-2 uses (transliterations of) local names that may differ from English ones. Set lang to a language code to switch between different languages for entities that have multiple ISO names. The default language for multilingual entities can be set on the country's data page.
