Description
A country is the current name, either short or official of a country, dependency or other area of particular geopolitical interest. The term country is defined to include: independent countries recognised by the New Zealand Government; units which are recognised geographic areas; administrative subdivisions of the United Kingdom; overseas dependencies, external territories of independent countries. A country, even if it comprises other discrete political entities such as states, is treated as a single unit for all classification purposes.
