Why India have 91 as country code
COUNTRY dialling codes were agreed in the early 1960s by the International Telecoms Union (a club of each country's network providers). In the days of mechanical telephone exchanges, it was convenient to split the world into broad areas: 1 for USA, 2 for Africa, 3 and 4 for Europe, etc. These were then further divided according to the capacity of each network, 33 for France, 44 for the UK, etc, and further still for smaller countries: 353 for Ireland, 354 for Iceland. The method ensured that no more than 11 digits were dialled, including this code. This was needed by the exchanges, but also avoided confusing the public with unnecessarily large numbers of digits. Modern electronic exchanges do not have such limitations - as shown by the recent changes to codes in the UK and France, for example. Politics may also have played a part in the allocation, e.g. 1 for USA so 7 for the USSR. The UK and France were the main players in the ITU, so they took the "nicer" codes 44 and 33. This country code can be varied from single digit to three digit. India has two digit country code +91.
