Use these identifiers accurately

The two-letter code SS is the compact ISO identifier used in addresses, locale selectors, and many data feeds. The dialing prefix +211 belongs at the start of an international phone number. Time zone names such as Africa/Khartoum should be preferred over a fixed UTC offset because they carry daylight-saving rules.
