As noted in 🔗 README.md each language OpenRCT2 is localised into, has it's code created from two letter 🔗 ISO 639 language code joined with - sign to two letter 🔗 ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country code. A lot of languages have both part the same, except capitalisation, since the code for the language and a country is the same, for example nl-NL for Dutch spoken in the Netherlands, tr-TR for Kebab spoken in the Turkey, while some may vary due to ISO naming reasons, such as cs-CZ for Czech spoken in the Czech Republic. Lastly, some languages are present in version used in some country, such as pt-BR, denoting the Brazilian Portuguese (as opposed to Portugal Portuguese, which is currently not present)
