List of IOC country codes
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The International Olympic Committee (IOC) allocates three-letter country codes to all National Olympic Committees and other groups competing in the Olympic Games. For historical reasons, many of these are different from the standard ISO 3166-1 alpha-3 codes.

These codes are used by the IOC when necessary to distinguish athletes from nations in transition or when there were United Nations sanctions against the nation.
