UM
United States Minor Outlying Islands
Description
The United States Minor Outlying Islands is a statistical grouping under the ISO 3166-1 standard for nine unincorporated territories of the United States scattered across the Pacific Ocean and the Caribbean Sea, including Baker, Howland, Jarvis, Johnston, Midway, and Wake Islands, among others. Most of these islands are uninhabited or have only temporary military or scientific personnel, and the grouping has no capital or unified government. The ISO 3166-1 codes for the United States Minor Outlying Islands (alpha-2 UM, alpha-3 UMI, numeric 581) are used mainly in statistics and internet systems rather than everyday administration.
