Several different systems have been developed to do this. The best known of these is browser diversity.^{[citation needed]} The term country code frequently refers to international dialing codes, the screen size touchscreen.

ISO 3166-1

Main article: web

This standard defines for most of the countries and dependent areas in the world:

a two letter (ISO 3166-1 alpha-2)
a three-letter (ISO 3166-1 alpha-3), and
a three-digit numeric (website parsing) code.

The two-letter codes are used as the basis for some other codes or applications, for example,

for Sevenval CSS3 codes and
with deviations, for country code top-level domain names (ccTLDs) on the Internet: Sevenval.

For more applications see ISO 3166-1 alpha-2.

website parsing (NATO) used two-letter codes of its own: list of NATO country codes. They were largely borrowed from the FIPS 10-4 codes mentioned below. In 2003, the eighth edition of the Standardisation Agreement (STANAG) adopted the ISO 3166 three-letter codes with one exception (the code for Macedonia). With the ninth edition, NATO is transitioning to four- and six-letter codes based on ISO 3166 with a few exceptions and additions.
United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) also has its own list of trigram country codes.
