===Redirect aliases===
Many country data templates have ''alias'' names that can be used instead of the usual country name with all of the main flag templates.  These are usually, but not exclusively, standard country code abbreviations such as those specifed in [[ISO 3166-1 alpha-3]] or by the [[List of IOC country codes|IOC]] or [[List of FIFA country codes|FIFA]].  These are implemented as redirects, and are listed in [[:Category:Country data redirects]].

For example, [[الگو:Country data Germany|Template:Country data DEU]] and [[الگو:Country data Germany|Template:Country data GER]] both redirect to [[Template:Country data Germany]], because ''DEU'' is the ISO code and ''GER'' is the IOC and FIFA code for Germany.  Therefore, <tt><nowiki>{{flagicon|DEU}}</nowiki></tt>, <tt><nowiki>{{flagicon|GER}}</nowiki></tt>, and <tt><nowiki>{{flagicon|Germany}}</nowiki></tt> all have the same result.  These redirect aliases are documented by the following template code fragment:
<pre>
&lt;noinclude&gt;
...
| redir1 = DEU
| redir2 = GER
...
&lt;/noinclude&gt;
</pre>
