This actually happened (eons ago). Nebraska was originally NB and then the
USPS got in a spitting contest and lost. Now NB is New Brunswick. But that
was before too many orgs used computers, much less databases. I only
remember because our company did and had to "fix" ours.

Can you imagine: Losing a contest to CANADA? How embarrassing.

State codes is a good example. However, if the USPS now states that TX will
be abbreviated TS there is no ON UPDATE CASCADE.
