The Kakoma Telephone Directory Numbering Scheme (KTDNS) commonly known as Zone Zero, is a telephone numbering plan devised in the Kúúlist Bloc in the late 1950s. Originally linking the military telephone infrastructure of Helsonia with Helsonian-occupied areas following the Great Ekuosian and Pangyeoun Wars , the scheme was rolled out for civil use in various countries between 1957-1962.
The Kakoma system is primarily used in Northwest Ekuosia, Akulanen, and Soltenna. Until at least 2001, the telephone scheme was used signficantly for state surveillance, monitoring and espionage operations.
The standard format of telephone numbers using the scheme is as follows:
- (~~ COUNTRY CODE) ~ REGION CODE ~ SERVICE CODE ~ UNIQUE NUMBER ~
Country codes
Country codes were distributed according to geographic proximity, and often cover several sovereign states.
- +00 – Former Helsonian Union and Rosland
- +00~0 – Cerman (West Terminia)
- +00~1 – Cerman (East Terminia)
- +00~2 – Cerman (Terminia Minor)
- +00~3 – Amerhan
- +00~4 – Cerman ( Utol) and eastern Bomhan
- +00~9 – Rosland
- +01 – Qonklaks
- +02 – Former Union of Supreme Communes of West Soltenna and Seang Pe Seang Pe
- +03 – Awarahl and Yachiro
- +04 – Galadros and western Bomhan
- +05 – Kedros and Orzun
- +06 – Vacant (formerly Shomosvan)
- +07 – Magali and Lutya
- +08 – Awating and Manea
- +09 – Quaxin Xun and Zaizung
Service codes
Code | Service type |
---|---|
0 | Freephone numbers. |
1 | Domestic telephones, for personal use only. |
2 | Public telephones and payphones. |
3 | Businesses, offices and other professional use. |
4 | Educational institutions only. |
5 | Local government and public services. |
6 | Reserved for military use. |
7 | Previously used for personal pagers, since the early 2000s predominantly used for mobile phones. |
8 | Central government and international organisations. |
9 | Premium rate numbers. |
Unique number
The exact numbering scheme differs between each country, but unique numbers are between 5-10 digits long and are typically divided into two segments, eg. xxxx xxxx.
