Module:Country alias
Documentation for this module may be created at Module:Country alias/doc
-- This module returns the country name or the flag name for a country,
-- based on the three-letter IOC/CGA/FINA alias.
--[[
The following country code is used for multiple countries:
ANG (workaround: added ANG_CGF for use with Commonwealth Games)
The following countries have different names/flags based on sport/year
ARI Ariddia became Ariddian Isles from 2nd Summer to 4th Summer Olympics, then Ariddia from 5th cycle onwards
QUE The Royal Kingdom of Quebec became Quebec and Shingoryeo from 15th Summer Olympics
LEN Liverpool England became Liventia from 4th Summer Olympics
COM Commerce Heights became Capitalizt SLANI from 2nd Winter
BCO Baranxtu became Baranxtu, Cikoutimi, and Otea from 3rd Summer
The following codes have been used by different countries:
XAN Xanonia in 5th Winter Olympics, subsequently used by Xanneria.
HAN Daehanjeiguk in 5th Winter Olympics, used by Hannasea later
STR Streleheim in 5th Summer Olympics, later used by StrayaRoos
AZC Dummy for Az-cz because Lua cannot accept A-C as a country code; Azulcena in 6th Winter Olympics
MEG Meguroko in 6th Winter Olympics, also used by Megistos
LCO LancasterCounty, Llama City One in 6th Winter
ALB Albertasby in 6th Summer
CAM Candelaria And Marquez, Camwood in 6th Summer
Real examples:
SWZ Swaziland became Eswatini after the 2018 Commonwealth Games
MKD Macedonia became North Macedonia in 2019
The following countries have multiple aliases due to organizational differences, code changes, or deprecated uses
Albertasby ABT, ALB
Allamunic States FAS, ALS, ACS
Asteran KAS, AST
Edward City USE, EDC
Malabra MAB, MLB
Wentland WEN, WLD
Zwangzug ZGZ, ZWZ
Oddity that needs to be revisited
French Polynesia PYF, TAH - TAH has been converted to Tahiti per SILENCE
