Svalbard and Jan Mayen Introduction
Svalbard and Jan Mayen (Norwegian: SvalbardogJanMayen, ISO3166-1alpha-2:SJ, ISO3166-1alpha-3:SJM, ISO3166-1numeric:744) is an area defined by the International Organization for Standardization. The jurisdiction of the Norwegian territory is composed of Svalbard and Jan Mayen. Although these two places are regarded as one by the International Standards Organization, they are not administratively related. Svalbard and Jan Mayen have the national top-level domain .sj. The United Nations Bureau of Statistics also uses this code to refer to these two places, but the full name used is different from the International Standards Organization, which is Svalbard and Jan Mayen Islands (English: Svalbard and Jan Mayen Islands). Svalbard is an archipelago on the Arctic Ocean, a Norwegian territory. According to the Svalbard Treaty, this area enjoys a special status compared to Norway. Jan Mayen is an island in the Arctic Ocean far from the mainland, with an impermanent population, and is governed by Nordland County, Norway. Svalbard and Jan Mayen are both Norwegian territories, but neither has the status of a county. The United Nations had applied for a separate ISO code for Svalbard, but the Norwegian authorities offered to let Jan Mayen and Svalbard share a code. |
