Guess the Location #84 (Set 6)

A country code top-level domain (ccTLD) is an Internet top-level domain generally used or reserved for a country, sovereign state, or dependent territory. All ASCII ccTLD identifiers are two letters long (lowercase), and all two-letter top-level domains are ccTLDs.

From the hints given (ccTLD, continent, an indication of whether the location is a sovereign state and — in some cases — an explanation), guess the location to which the ccTLD has been delegated by the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA).
