  Are you referring to views by country stats displayed in your site stats?

  hi, playlandos:

  The service we use to translate IP addresses to countries returns an ISO 3166-2 code.
  Macedonia has had its own ISO code ( “MK” ) since this standard was drafted and has been amended to include subdivisions since. Further, Macedonia is an admitted member of the UN.
