	Within a country, there are usually some more "parochial" ways to write numbers that omit the country code (and sometimes the area code as well if it's aimed at a local audience, though these days mobile phone users often keep their number when they move, so the area code is no longer a reliable indication of location). For instance, U.S. numbers can be written as "(212) 555-1212" or "212-555-1212" or "555-1212". These can be ambiguous if you don't know the area or country the number is in.
