ISO 8859-2, aka Latin-2, an encoding of the ISO 8859 family for eastern European languages that use the Latin alphabet. Supported languages are Bosnian, Croatian, Czech, German, Hungarian, Polish, Serbian Latin, Slovak, Slovene, Upper Sorbian, and Lower Sorbian. German letters with umlauts and eszett (ß) are identically encoded in 8859-1 and 8859-2.
The Latin-2 encoding incorporates the ASCII characters in the first 128 code points (0-127), including the C0 controls.
