				<title>Aland Islands (AX) Capital - Mariehamn ???</title>
				<description><![CDATA[ Greetings Marc -

Aland Islands (part of Finland) got its own designation as a country with the ISO code of AX. However, there are no entries for AX.

Under Finland (FI):
Aland Islands is geoname_id=661883 (ISLS) 
Mariehamn is geoname_id3041732 (PPLA)

Would you please create a country entry and capital entry for AX to start that country?

Thanks In Advance.

Regards,
]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[ It is true that AX has a code, the code is included in the country info file http://download.geonames.org/export/dump/countryInfo.txt

I don't really want to change the country code of the toponyms, because it is part of Finland and I don't understand why it has it's own code. 
For Guernsey and others we have assigned both codes, we could also do this for Åland.
I would prefer to make a consistent list of all dependent entities before changing anything. Otherwise it will not be consistent over all countries.

Best
