ISO 8859-16

ISO 8859-16, also known as Latin-10 or "South-Eastern European", is an 8-bit character encoding, part of the ISO 8859 standard. It was designed to cover Albanian, Croatian, Hungarian, Italian, Polish, Romanian and Slovenian, but also Finnish, French, German and Irish Gaelic (new orthography). It differs from the other ISO 8859 standards in that it has almost no symbols, instead opting to include as many letters as possible.
