Probably the funniest Wikipedia page to take out of context:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karen_people .

At any rate, I keep getting annoyed when I have to look up a country code on Wikipedia, one of the simplest datasets and conspicuously missing from the awk/grep/sed/whatever-friendly files I keep around in ~/data and also missing from /lib on Plan 9, which still ships with a list of all US area codes, positions of the stars, Unicode tables, all kinds of useful references.
Did you know that ISO wants 300 Swiss francs for their file full of "India is abbreviated 'IN' or 'IND', Ukraine is UKR or UA"? ISO-3166:
https://www.iso.org/publication/PUB500001.html . So then you go get it from

La Cia

at
https://www.cia.gov/the-world-factbook/references/country-data-codes/ and it's an Excel-style CSV and you have to strip the \r and the stupid BOM because the CIA fuckin' loves Windows.
So, here's a public service, here's this file, it is tab-separated, no header, columns are two-letter ISO-3166 abbreviation, three-letter ISO, ISO country code, ccTLD, Stanag, GENC (US gov), official name, and CIA-supplied comment.
