2-Letter Country Name Abbreviations
This 2-letter country name abbreviation table is for me. And for you, too.
I made this country name abbreviation list because, simply, I got tired of doing a search for one the infrequent times I needed it. (The two-letter codes are based on ISO 3166‑1, the codes generally used for internet URLs.)
The list can be ordered on the 2-letter abbreviation or on the country name.
