问题 Is there a way to find a country's continent in C#, using the RegionInfo class or any other way?

Just generate this table from some public database and once you have it you can simply query it. It's also pretty fast. http://www.geonames.org/countries/ You can get from there a database (there is an option to

Why is ᏌᏊ ᎢᏳᎾᎵᏍᏔᏅ ᏍᎦᏚᎩ the native name of the U.S.?

问题 When I use this code: var ri = new RegionInfo("us"); var nativeName = ri.NativeName; // ᏌᏊ ᎢᏳᎾᎵᏍᏔᏅ ᏍᎦᏚᎩ why is nativeName then the string "ᏌᏊ ᎢᏳᎾᎵᏍᏔᏅ ᏍᎦᏚᎩ" (in Cherokee)? If I change to new RegionInfo("US") (only difference, capital US ), I get instead "United States" . I do know the preferred usage of RegionInfo is to give a specific culture info string such as: new RegionInfo("en-US") new RegionInfo("chr-Cher-US") and so on, and that works. But why is Cherokee preferred over English only if

问题 When I try to create a new RegionInfo with certain ISO 3166 country codes ("BD" for Bangladesh, "SO" for Somalia, "LK" for Sri Lanka), I get an ArgumentException that says it's not recognized. What's the deal? The Intellisense of RegionInfo(string) says it conforms to ISO 3166, but these country/region codes are not supported? I don't get it. 回答1: .NET doesn't provide all Cultures/Regions out-of-the-box. Note the 'predefined' RegionInfos here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system
