Specifically I’m trying to set up a countries model in my rails application that will contain the locale settings used by Rails i18n.
I have found conflicting information about how Great Britain is represented.
According to this source it is en-GB
https://github.com/svenfuchs/rails-i18n/tree/master/rails/locale
But according to this source it is en-UK
http://guides.rubyonrails.org/v2.3.8/i18n.html
is it GB or UK, or does it matter?
It should be
GBbecause the 2-letter country codes should correspond to those in ISO 3166 http://www.davros.org/misc/iso3166.htmlI believe it is not uncommon to treat
UKas an alias forGB, and as such support both.
