You know how the Olympic Committee has country codes for every country? Well, here are my country codes for Civ. A lot of them are based on the names of the countries in their own language. I think they look cooler.

AZT (Aztecs)
ARB (Arabia)
BAB (Babylon)
BHA (India [Bharat])
BTR (Byzantium [Basileia ton Rhomaion])
CAR (Carthage)
CLT (Celtia)
DTS (Germany [Deutschland])
ENG (England)
ESP (Spain [España])
ETH (Ethiopia)
FRA (France)
HEL (Greece [Hellas])
HRE (Holy Rome)
KHM (Khmer)
KMT (Egypt [Kemet])
KOR (Korea)
MAY (Maya)
MLI (Mali)
MON (Mongolia)
NED (Netherlands)
NPN (Japan [Nippon])
NTA (Native America)
PRS (Persia)
POR (Portugal)
OSM (Ottomans [Osmaniyye])
RUS (Russia)
SPR (Rome [Senatus Populosque Romanorum])
QIN (China [Qing])
USA (America)
SUM (Sumeria)
TAH (Inca [Tahuantinsuyu])
VIK (Vikings)

I'll follow this up with country codes for modded civs.
 
The Other Civ to my left = NOW

The Other Civ to my right=NEXT

All Other Civs=SAT (Shortly After That)

:D
 
A few suggestions:

BHA (India [Bharat])
The real IOC code is IND, and as near as I can tell it represents the same nation (a unified India is historically much rarer than you'd think, and Gandhi's presence would point towards this one)

DTS (Germany [Deutschland])
Real code is GER. Also used are ALL, ALE (from the French, I assume), and FRG (Federal Republic of Germany).

ENG (England)
Real code is GRB, but Civ is notorious for using "England" where "Great Britain" would be more appropriate, so I don't know.

HEL (Greece [Hellas])
The real code for modern Greece is GRE. Civ's Greece is obviously not modern, but they're both called Hellas so...

KHM (Khmer)
Cambodia's code is CAM, if it matters. KHM was used for the Khmer Republic.

KMT (Egypt [Kemet])
Modern Egypt's code is EGY, see Greece.

KOR (Korea)
COR has also been used, from the French.

MON (Mongolia)
MON is Monaco. Modern Mongolia is MGL.

NPN (Japan [Nippon])
Real code is JPN.

PRS (Persia)
Iran's code is IRI (IRN and IRA have also been used) if it matters.

OSM (Ottomans [Osmaniyye])
Turkey's is TUR, if it matters.

QIN (China [Qing])
Real code is CHN.
 
Well, what happens is that most of these are based on the original language. I wanted to make it a bit different.
