About the 2 character top domain codes...

If I'm not wrong, they simply selected the common,
standard 2 character country codes as used everywhere else.

3166/iso3166-2.html

lists/list-en1.html

Seems quite logical to me...

But then, if you use inch, lb, oz and so on,
why bother about standards... :-)
