What is the Country Code?
The Country Code is a two-letter code identifying top-level domains for countries in the Domain Name System (DNS). Country codes are a way of geographically identifying a domain name as belonging to a particular country.
They are an alternative to the more commonly used organizational codes such as .com, .org, .net, and so on. This table lists the various country codes for the DNS system.
