This module returns a country's or subdivision's code (alpha-2, alpha-3, numeric) or name
==Examples==
===Countries (ISO 3166-1)===
All three types of [[ISO 3166-1]] codes (alpha-2, alpha-3 and numeric) work as inputs to <code>name</code>, as well as to <code>code</code> (which can therefore also be used to convert between different code types). Use {{para|codetype}} to output alpha-3 or numeric codes in <code>code</code> instead of the default alpha-2 codes.
====Name====
To get the common name use the name function
*{{tnull|#invoke:ISO 3166|name|GB}} → {{#invoke:ISO 3166|name|GB}}
*{{tnull|#invoke:ISO 3166|name|GBR}} → {{#invoke:ISO 3166|name|GBR}}
*{{tnull|#invoke:ISO 3166|name|826}} → {{#invoke:ISO 3166|name|826}}
====ISO Name====
To get the ISO name use the name function with isoname = yes
*{{tnull|#invoke:ISO 3166|name|GB|isoname{{=}}yes}} → {{#invoke:ISO 3166|name|GB|isoname=yes}}
*{{tnull|#invoke:ISO 3166|name|GBR|isoname{{=}}yes}} → {{#invoke:ISO 3166|name|GBR|isoname=yes}}
*{{tnull|#invoke:ISO 3166|name|826|isoname{{=}}yes}} → {{#invoke:ISO 3166|name|826|isoname=yes}}
====Alpha-2====
To get the alpha 2 code use the code function
*{{tnull|#invoke:ISO 3166|code|826}} → {{#invoke:ISO 3166|code|826}}
*{{tnull|#invoke:ISO 3166|code|United Kingdom}} → {{#invoke:ISO 3166|code|United Kingdom}}
*{{tnull|#invoke:ISO 3166|code|UK}} → {{#invoke:ISO 3166|code|UK}}
====Alpha-3====
To get the alpha 3 code use the code function with codetype = 3
*{{tnull|#invoke:ISO 3166|code|United Kingdom|codetype{{=}}alpha3}} → {{#invoke:ISO 3166|code|United Kingdom|codetype=alpha3}}
*{{tnull|#invoke:ISO 3166|name|GB}} → {{#invoke:ISO 3166|name|GB}}
*{{tnull|#invoke:ISO 3166|name|GBR}} → {{#invoke:ISO 3166|name|GBR}}
*{{tnull|#invoke:ISO 3166|name|826}} → {{#invoke:ISO 3166|name|826}}
*{{tnull|#invoke:ISO 3166|code|UK|codetype{{=}}alpha3}} → {{#invoke:ISO 3166|code|UK|codetype=alpha3}}
====Numeric====
To get the numeric code use the code function with codetype = numeric '''or''' use the numeric function
*{{tnull|#invoke:ISO 3166|numeric|GB}} → {{#invoke:ISO 3166|numeric|GB}}
*{{tnull|#invoke:ISO 3166|code|GB|codetype{{=}}numeric}} → {{#invoke:ISO 3166|code|GB|codetype=numeric}}
===Subdivisions (ISO 3166-2)===
Inputs to <code>name</code> must be valid [[ISO 3166-2]] codes, i.e. the country's alpha-2 code for the first part, and up to three alphanumeric characters for the second part. They may be given normally (with a hyphen between the parts), or split between two unnamed parameters. For <code>code</code>, the first parameter is the country name (or any of its three codes, like above), and the second the subdivision name.
====Code (alpha-2)====
To get the alpha-2 code of a subdivision use the code function with parameter 1 being the country and parameter 2 being the subdivision
*{{tnull|#invoke:ISO 3166|code|United Kingdom|England}} → {{#invoke:ISO 3166|code|United Kingdom|England}}
*{{tnull|#invoke:ISO 3166|code|GBR|England}} → {{#invoke:ISO 3166|code|GBR|England}}
*{{tnull|#invoke:ISO 3166|code|GB|England}} → {{#invoke:ISO 3166|code|GB|England}}
====Name====
To get the name of a subdivision use the name function with parameter 1 being the country and parameter 2 being the subdivsion '''or''' parameter 1 being the subdivsion code
*{{tnull|#invoke:ISO 3166|name|GB-ENG}} → {{#invoke:ISO 3166|name|GB-ENG}}
*{{tnull|#invoke:ISO 3166|name|GB|ENG}} → {{#invoke:ISO 3166|name|GB|ENG}}
{{para|isoname}} works for subnational entities as well; keep in mind that ISO 3166-2 uses (transliterations of) local names that may differ from English ones. Set {{para|lang}} to a [[ISO 639|language code]] to switch between different languages for entities that have multiple ISO names. The default language for multilingual entities can be set on the country's [[Module:ISO 3166/data|data page]].
*{{tnull|#invoke:ISO 3166|name|BE|BRU}} → {{#invoke:ISO 3166|name|BE|BRU}}
*{{tnull|#invoke:ISO 3166|name|BE|BRU|isoname{{=}}yes}} → {{#invoke:ISO 3166|name|BE|BRU|isoname=yes}}
*{{tnull|#invoke:ISO 3166|name|BE|BRU|lang{{=}}fr}} → {{#invoke:ISO 3166|name|BE|BRU|lang=fr}}
*{{tnull|#invoke:ISO 3166|name|BE|BRU|lang{{=}}nl}} → {{#invoke:ISO 3166|name|BE|BRU|lang=nl}}
