12# Thomas G. Shanks, The International Atlas (5th edition),

14#
15# Gwillim Law writes that a good source
16# for recent time zone data is the International Air Transport

20#
21# Except where otherwise noted, Shanks is the source for entries through 1990,

990# We'll use Hovd (also spelled Chovd and Khovd) to represent the west zone;
991# the capital of the Hovd province is sometimes called Hovd, sometimes Dund-Us,
992# and sometimes Jirgalanta (with variant spellings), but the name Hovd
993# is good enough for our purposes.
