Everything about Iso 3166-2 Kp totally explained

ISO 3166-2:KPis an ISO standard which defines geocodes: it's the subset of ISO 3166-2 which applies to North Korea.
   It assigns codes to 9 provinces and 4 special cities. (One of these cities has since been reclassified as an Industrial Region, and codes have not yet been assigned to 2 other special administrative regions.)
   Each two-part code consists of the ISO 3166-1 code for North Korea (KP) and a 3-character sub-code, hyphenated together.
