All of the USSR was +7 IIRC. Most changed it after independence, notice how the Baltics, Belarus and whatnot have previously unassigned three-character numbers instead of two like most of Europe (except microstates). They only got their numbers in the 90s, and no shorter ones were available. +37 just became available since east Germany didn’t exist anymore.
Same with the former Yugoslavian countries, all of YU used +38, when they split up they had to split up +38 too.
The US is literally #1
Edit: plus Canada, I didn’t know we were country calling code buddies 🫶
They needed to make it simple for Americans
Awww :(
I was just pointing it out because we’re never #1 in anything that isn’t horrible these days
Don’t worry. I was only joking.
America is #1 at lots of things, like… erm… yeah. Lots of things.
… Definitely at claiming to be #1. #1 bad or good. Doesn’t matter. #1 lol.
Nobody has loved or hated America more than America.
The only other pair sharing the same number are Russia and Kazakhstan with 7
