The list of formerly used country names in this part of ISO 3166 is exclusively derived from the 1974,1981,1988,1993, and the editions ISO 31 66-1:1997,ISO 3166-1 :2006, and ISO 3166-1:2013.
Country names which have been removed from the 1974,1981, 1988, 1993, ISO 3166-1:1997, ISO 3166-1:2006, and ISO 31 66-1 :2013 editions are included in this release of ISO 3166-3 if one of the conditions giv-en in 4.2.2 to 4.2.5 applies.
The significant part of a country name, which forms the basis for allocating the country code element in ISO 3166-1, is changed in such a way that no visual association between the new country name and the formerly used country code element is possible or could be misleading.
A country, dependency or other area of particular ge-opolitical interest in the list of ISO 3166-1 is divided in-to two or more new countries, dependencies or other areas of geopolitical interest.
EXAMPLE CZECHOSLOVAKIA (CS) was divided into the CZECH REPUBLIC (CZ) and SLOVAKIA (SK) in 1993.
Two or more countries, dependencies or other areas of particular geopolitical interest in the list of ISO 3166-1 merge into one new country, dependency or other area of particular geopolitical interest. In this process, the name of at least one of the countries,dependencies or other areas of particular geopolitical interest becomes a formerly used country name.
The code elements for formerly used country names shall have a length of four alphabetical characters (al-pha-4 code elements). The first two characters are, in all cases, the original alpha-2 code element repre-senting the former country name removed from any edition of ISO3166 and ISO 3166-1. The coding structure of the second two characters reflects the four categories for inclusion defined in 4.2.2 to 4.2.5.
NOTE The structure of code elements for a particu-lar case of change of country name is defined in 5.1.5.
In the case of a second deletion of an ISO 3166-1 code element, which would have been reattributed to represent another country name, the corresponding ISO 31 66-3 alpha-4 code element shall finish by the two letters XX instead of the two finishing letters HH
