This standard specifies the codes for the names of countries and regions in the world. This standard applies to information processing and exchange at home and abroad.

GB/T2659-2000
This standard adopts ISO3166-1:1997 (E/F) "Codes for Names of Countries and Subordinate Areas - Part 1: Country Codes", and revise GB/T2659-1994 with reference to the announcements issued by the ISO3166 Maintenance Agency (ISO3166/MA) and the United Nations Statistics Division (UNSD) as of September 30, 1999.
The names and codes of countries and regions listed in this standard do not represent my country's attitude towards their sovereignty, political status and border demarcation. The English abbreviations and full names of countries and regions listed in this standard are basically consistent with ISO3166-1:1997 (E/F), and the Chinese abbreviations and full names are basically consistent with GB/T2659-1994.
The main differences and similarities between this standard and ISO3166-1:1997 (E/F) and (GB/T2659-1994): 1. This standard is equivalent to Chapters 3, 5, 6, 8 and 9 of ISO3166-1:1997 (E/F); 2. This standard does not adopt IS0 3. Table 1 of this standard adopts the column setting format of GB/T2659-1994. For ease of use, a column for serial number is added. The serial number is maintained by the National Technical Committee for Information and Documentation Standardization; 4. This standard, like GB/T2659-1994 and ISO3166-1:1997 (E/F), lists the two-character Latin alphabet code index of country and region names, the three-character Latin alphabet code index of country and region names, and the Arabic numeral code index of country and region names, and adds the Chinese phonetic index of country and region names. The four indexes are all appendices to this standard. The standard was first issued in 1981, revised for the first time in 1986, revised for the second time in 1994, and this is the third revision. This standard replaces GB/T2659--1994 from the date of implementation. This standard is proposed by the State Post Bureau.
This standard is under the jurisdiction of the National Information and Documentation Standardization Technical Committee. The drafting units of this standard are: the State Post Bureau Scientific Research and Planning Institute, the Chinese Institute of Scientific and Technical Information, and the Beijing Documentation Service Office. The main drafters of this standard are: Zhang Zhiyun, Yu Tong, Li Xiujin, Zhen, Shen Yulan, and Zhao Xiaochen. 122
