US Aircraft Registration - N

[bilwor]

Why was N (NC) chosen as prefix for U S aircraft registration?

I'm not sure why in the United States we use the prefix: "N", but, from what I understand, the prefix is simply a country code.

Every country has their own prefix (EX- Canada: "C", Germany "D", etc...).
