9、995 April Announcing the Standard for COUNTRIES, DEPENDENCIES, AREAS OF SPECIAL SOVEREIGNTY, AND THEIR PRINCIPAL ADMINISTRATIVE DIVISIONS Federal Information Processing Standards Publications (FIPS PUBS) are issued by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) after approval by the Se
10、cretary of Commerce pursuant to Section 11 1 (d) of the Federal Property and Administratwe Services Act of 1949 as amended by the Computer Security Act of 1987, Public Law 100-235. I. Name of Standard. Countries, Dependencies, Areas of Special Sovereignty, and Their Principal Administrative Division
11、s (FIPS PUB 10-4). 2. Category of Standard. Data Standard, Representations and Codes. 3. Explanation. This Standard provides a list of the basic geopolitical entities in the world, together with the principal administrative divisions that comprise each entity. Each basic geopolitical entity that was
12、 listed in FIPS PUB 10-3, Countries, Dependencies, and Areas of Special Sovereignty, as updated, is included; it is represented by the same twocharacter, alphabetic “country code.” Each principal administrative division is identified by a fourcharacter code consisting of the two-character “country c
13、ode” followed by a two- character “administrative division code.” This Standard may be applied either in the twocharacter format, in which only a basic entity is identified, or in the fourcharacter format that identifies both a basic entity and one of its principal divisions. This Standard incorpora
14、tes already issued technical changes and supersedes FIPS PUB 10-3 in its entirety. This version, however, differs from FIPS 10-3 in that it does not include diacritics or scope notes. Conventional names and formerly approved names for administrative divisions have also been discontinued, and Table 2
15、, Appendix A, and Appendix B have been eliminated. The purposes of data element standardization are to eliminate unnecessary duplications and incompat- ibilities in the collection, processing, and dissemination of data, and to maximize the usefulness of data resources. The use of data referenced to
16、a standard set of representations or codes reduces collection costs by allowing previously collected data to be applied to new uses, and provides a potential for benefit derived from those additional applications. Standardization also reduces conversion costs for interchange of data between database
17、s, and reduces costs of data element maintenance by the implementation of a centrally, maintained standard to replace separately maintained elements. 4. Approving Authority. The Secretary of Commerce. 5. Maintenance Agency. Office of the Geographer and Global Issues, U.S. Department of State, Washin
18、gton, DC 20520. Questions concerning the list of entities and codes should be addressed to the Maintenance Agency. The Maintenance Agency will provide information to the National Institute of Standards and Technology on changes as they occur. These may include changes in names (as approved by the U.
19、S. Board on Geographic Names), or changes in definitions or codes. See Section 9 below for information on how to obtain copies of this standard. 1 Provided by IHSNot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,- FIPS-PUB-10-4 9999980 0027407 430 = FIPS PUB 55-3 Chan
20、ge notices to this FIPS PUB will be issued by the National Institute of Standards and Technology. Users who wish to receive such notices should complete the Change Request Form provided in this publication and return it to the address indicated on the form. 6. Applicability. This data element and re
21、presentation standard is made available for the interchange of information among Federal departments and independent agencies. It is intended for use in activities associated with the mission of the Department of State and national defense programs. It may also be used for Federal interchanges of in
22、formation with the non-Federal sector including industry, State, local, and other Governments, and the public at large. This Standard is intended for applications involving the interchange of international data. Applications limited primarily to domestic data, .e., concerning the United States and i
23、ts outlying areas, should use FIPS PUB 5-2, Codes for the Identification of the States, the District of Columbia and the Outlying Areas of the United States, and Associated Areas. For applications involving interchange of international data that require the use of the country codes of the Internatio
24、nal Organization for Standardization, Le., IS0 31 66, FIPS PUB 104-1, American National Standard Codes for the Representation of Names of Countries, Dependencies, and Areas of Special Sovereignty for Information Interchange, is available. FIPS PUB 104-1 provides both two-and threecharacter alphabeti
25、c codes for each entity listed. Federal agencies that do not require FIPS PUB 104-1 for international data interchange, and that are not involved in national defense programs or with the mission of the US. Department of State, may adopt either FIPS PUB 10-4 or FIPS PUB 104-1. 7. Implementation Sched
26、ule. Changes provided by this revision can be implemented immediately. Use by Federal agencies is encouraged when such use contributes to operational benefits, efficiency, or economy. 8.

Name of Standard. Countries, Dependencies, Areas of Special Sovereignty, and Their P
30、rincipal Administrative Divisions. 2. Category of Standard. Data Standard, Representations and Codes. 3. Explanation. This Standard provides a list of the basic geopolitical entities in the world, together with the principal administrative divisions that comprise each entity. As in FIPS 10-3, each b
31、asic geopolitical entity is represented by a twocharacter, alphabetic ”country code,” and each principal administrative division is identified by a fourcharacter code consisting of the twocharacter “country code” followed by a two-character, primarily numeric, “administrative division code.” This St
32、andard may be applied either in the twocharacter format, in which only a basic entity is identified, or in the four-character format that identifies a basic entity and one of its principal administrative divisions. If a complete basic entity is to be represented in the fourcharacter format, blanks a
33、re to be used for its “administrative division code.” FIPS PUB 10-3 is superseded in its entirety by this Standard. Basic geopolitical entities assigned “country codes” include the following categories: (a) independent states; (b) dependent areas; (c) areas of quasi-independence, noncontiguous terri
34、tories, possessions with- out populations, areas with special sovereignty associations, areas without sovereignty; (d) political regimes not recognized by the United States; and (e) outlying areas of the United States. The list of basic entities provides complete coverage of the land areas of the wo
35、rld without overlap or duplication. For purposes of this standard, a principal administrative division is defined as an administrative area directly subordinate to the pertinent governing authority. Even though all principal administrative divisions within an entity may not be of equal rank, this St
36、andard considers them as “principal.” Geographic names in current use that are listed in this Standard are approved by the United States Board on Geographic Names (BGN), the authority established under Public Law 80-242 to “provide for uniformity in geographic nomenclature and orthography throughout
37、 the Federal Government.” Names in this Standard approved by the Board include current names of countries, dependencies, areas of special sover- eignty, and their principal administrative divisions. 4. Specifications. The basic geopolitical entities and their divisions are named, where they are . se
38、quenced in alphabetic order by basic entity. A typical entry consists of the twocharacter, alphabetic “country code” of each basic entity; the entity name; the designatory term or terms for administrative divisions of that entity; and the names and complete fourcharacter codes of all the principal d
39、ivisions that comprise the entity. The twocharacter “administrative division code” is alphanumeric, although it is purely numeric in most cases. An alphanumeric code is used to distinguish administrative divisions such as in New Zealand where there are more than 99. 3 Provided by IHSNot for ResaleNo
40、 reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-FIPS WB 10.4 The designatory terms of divisions in non-English-speaking areas are presented in English translation - followed by their indigenous forms, where these are available. For example, in Norway, Yylke“ is the indige- nous te
41、rm for an administrative division and province“ is the English equivalent for that term. In the entry for Norway, this information is presented below the “country code“ as “provincdfylke.“ Some countries have more than one dass of administrative division, for example, province and territory. Asteris
42、ks are used to distinguish members of different classes. In the case of province and territory, these designatory terms would be presented below the “country code“ as: province *territory. Then, each name of a territory listed would be followed by an asterisk, while each name of a province would be
43、left unmarked. To distinguish third and fourth designatory terms, Wo and three asterisks are used, respectively. For entities in which a script other than the Roman is locally used, BGN-approved Romanization systems indicate Roman script equivalents for names. Conventional names are enclosed in pare
44、ntheses and formerly approved names are enclosed in square brackets. 5. Quallflcaons.
