[W/K] :: country code

  country code
       
           Originally, a two-letter abbreviation
          for a particular country, generally used as a top-level
          domain.
       
          Originally, as the name implies, country codes were meant just
          for countries; but over time, country codes were allocated for
          many areas (mostly islands) that aren't countries -- such as
          Antarctica (aq), Christmas Island (cx) and Saint Pierre et
          Miquelon (pm).
       
          Country codes are based on ISO 3166 and are used as the top
          level domain for Internet hostnames in most countries but
          hardly ever in the USA (code "us").
