According to international practice, is Greenland considered a national grade? Otherwise, the geographic data of the country cannot be displayed on some map services It is wrong from 3/16,thanks

Greenland has its own ISO3166 codes GL/ GRL/304 and is usually treated as a sovereign entity in publications by UN and others. (Formally, Greenland is a sovereign part of Denmark).

It should be treated as a separate country.
