				<description><![CDATA[ Hi Lidia

I understand you want to express things like 

<http://sws.geonames.org/3017382/>    :isoALPHA3     "FRA"

Of course you can do that, but there are no such specific attribute(s) defined so far in the Geonames ontology. We could add it in a further version, but actually all the Semantic Web community is waiting for ISO or some other authoritative organism to publish an ontology of such properties ... Meanwhile you can forge your own vocabulary and map it or change it to authoritative URIs ... whenever those are published.

Does that help?
