But that's not the question you posed in the original post. You asked about URNs, and the URN registry imposes a taxonomy. You're wanting a registry of identifiers classified by country and type. That's a taxonomy.
Why depend on someone else's registry? Make your own, don't worry about taxonomy, and use it.
