What variants of holidays are supported by Nager.Date

Here you can see how long the product will be supported and when the End of Life (EOL) is planned.

There is no generally valid designation for the next administrative level of countries. "Nager.Date" supports the initial subdivision of a country, but we will not support a detailed level because the effort required is too high.

To keep it generally valid, we will treat this subdivision as SubdivisionCodes, this will replace the current designation Counties.

• United States of America use States
• Germany use States
• Austria use States
• Switzerland use Cantons
• Brazil use States
• Australia use States or Territories
