A quick note on the Northern Mariana Islands (TR_STATE)

"Former USPS code "CM" for the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands is now obsolete; it was changed to MP in 1988 to match ISO 3166-1."

[Wikipedia]

TR_STATE, as it comes out of the box, apparently dates back before 1988.  I haven't checked any of the other listed changes...

    Yes, TR_STATE is out-of-date out of the box, as is TR_CITYSTATE (we update the latter monthly). Over the years I have updated TR_STATE for the Northern Mariana Islands as well as Quebec, which switched from PQ to QC in 1991(!).
