There are two countries which are geographically in Asia but are considered part of Europe for cultural and historical reasons. They have been assigned country codes in the +3 range:

*An "open" dialing plan is one in which there are different dialing arrangements for local and long distance telephone calls. This means that to call another number within the same city or area, callers need dial only the number, but for calls outside the area, an area code is required. In a "closed" plan, the number dialed is the same, regardless of where in the country the call originates.
