Remarks The State/Province (Postal Standard) standardization definition is intended to abbreviate or contract names of states/provinces, if the locale's postal standard specifies this. Since there is no official postal standard for Greece with respect to abbreviating or contracting the names of prefectures, this definition is a copy of the State/Province standardization definition.
