Question 1 of 30
The Republic of Molvania, a fictional nation-state located in Eastern Europe, recently underwent a formal name change to the \"United Republic of Greater Molvania\" following a national referendum aimed at emphasizing unity and progress. The Molvanian government has officially notified the ISO 3166 Maintenance Agency (ISO 3166/MA) of this change, requesting that the ISO 3166 codes be updated accordingly. Given the principles and procedures governing ISO 3166 code maintenance, which of the following outcomes is most likely regarding the ISO 3166 codes for the United Republic of Greater Molvania, considering the need for both reflecting the new national identity and minimizing disruption to existing international systems that rely on these codes? Assume that Molvania\'s territorial boundaries and international treaties remain unchanged.
The Alpha-2 code will likely be updated to reflect the new name, while the Alpha-3 and Numeric codes may remain the same to minimize disruption, assuming the change doesn't fundamentally alter the country's international obligations or identity.
All three codes (Alpha-2, Alpha-3, and Numeric) will be immediately updated to ensure complete alignment with the new name, regardless of potential disruptions, to fully reflect the nation's new identity.
No changes will be made to any of the ISO 3166 codes, as the name change is considered purely cosmetic and does not affect Molvania's territorial boundaries or international agreements.
Only the Numeric code will be updated, as it is the least frequently used and its modification will have minimal impact on existing systems, while the Alpha-2 and Alpha-3 codes will remain unchanged.
