Subject: doesn't use the correct ISO 3166 code for united kingdom
For IP addresses in the UK, the get_country_short() module returns a code of 'UK', which isn't the ISO 3166 code for the UK, 'GB' is. By default I think the module should return GB, as if people are working with ISO codes, they'll expect to get that back. You could provide a convenience function or parameter on the constructor, which says to use 'UK' rather than 'GB'.
The UK has been replaced with GB in the results.
