Federal Information Processing Standards Publication (FIPS Pub) 5-1. Relationship. Counties and County Equivalents (GEO-00201); Named Populated Places, Primary County Divisions, and Other Locational Entities of the United States (GEO-00202); Metropolitan Statistical Area (GEO-00203). FDA Specifications. United States, the District of Columbia, and the outlying areas of the United States are represented by a two (2) digit number, right justified with leading zero. CDER Specifications. a) FIPS designates a two-digit numeric code for each state and the District of Columbia, instead of using a U.S. Postal Service two-letter abbreviation. Since CDER uses the data in this field to address correspondence, and since the two-digit numeric code is not recognized by the U.S. Postal Service, it was felt that we needed to deviate from FIPS in this regard, and solely employ the U.S. Postal Service two letter abbreviation. It was decided that FIPS codes would be specified in this standard monograph as a cross-reference to enable data conversion from non-CDER components.

Extractions: Pointless observations on the world Main April 07, 2004 US Territories I am sure that most of the people reading this have a strong understanding of the 50 US States, but can you name all of the unincorporated territories of the US? I am sure you know Guam and maybe Puerto Rico, but here is a bit of information, and related maps for all fifteen US territories. American Samoa Settled as early as 1000 BC, Samoa was "discovered" by European explorers in the 18th century. International rivalries in the latter half of the 19th century were settled by an 1899 treaty in which Germany and the US divided the Samoan archipelago. The US formally occupied its portion - a smaller group of eastern islands with the excellent harbor of Pago Pago - the following year Baker Island (uninhabited, administered from Washington, DC) The United States of America took possession of the island in 1857, and its guano deposits were mined by US and British companies during the second half of the 19th century. In 1935, a short-lived attempt at colonization was begun on this island - as well as on nearby Howland Island - but was disrupted by World War II and thereafter abandoned. Presently the island is a National Wildlife Refuge run by the US Department of the Interior; a day beacon is situated near the middle of the west coast. Federated States of Micronesia In 1525 Portuguese navigators in search of the Spice Islands (Indonesia) came upon Yap and Ulithi. Spanish expeditions later made the first European contact with the rest of the Caroline Islands. Spain established its colonial government on Yap and claimed sovereignty over the Caroline Islands until 1899. At that time, Spain withdrew from its Pacific insular areas and sold its interests to Germany. German administration encouraged the development of trade and production of copra. In 1914 German administration ended when the Japanese navy took military possession of the Marshall, Caroline and Northern Mariana Islands. Japan began its formal administration under a League of Nations mandate in 1920.

Extractions: SOCIAL SCIENCES Humanities and History Authors: Ellis, David R.; ARMY WAR COLL CARLISLE BARRACKS PA Abstract: The Midway Islands (U.S. Pacific Territory) have been the most important United States possession in the Pacific, other than the Hawaiian Islands. Their strategic importance to this country goes well beyond the role that they played in the Battle of Midway in 1942, and that role itself has been largely overlooked. Despite their importance there is virtually no comprehensive written history of the islands and none that could be considered up-to-date. This Project attempts to: (1) produce the definitive history of the Midway Islands, (2) document and demonstrate their past strategic importance to the U. S., and (3) postulate on their future strategic significance.
