To solve the +1 "country code" issue, since +1 refers to USA, Canada, and
the Bahamas, you might want to add:

     While the "country code" usually identifies the numbers of a

     International public telecommunication number for geographic areas.

     International public telecommunication number for global services.

     International public telecommunication number for Networks.
