Latin characters in Unicode

Unicode as of version 5.1 defines the following ranges for encoding the Latin alphabet and derived characters:
*Basic Latin 0000–007F: identical to ASCII (0000–001F, 007F are control characters, 0020–003F are punctuation and Arabic numerals)
*Latin-1 Supplement 0080–00FF: identical to ISO/IEC 8859-1 (0080–009F are control characters, 00A0–00BF are currency symbols, punctuation and numerals)
*Latin Extended-A 0100–017F
*Latin Extended-B 0180–024F
*IPA Extensions 0250–02AF
*Phonetic Extensions 1D00–1D7F
*Phonetic Extensions Supplement 1D80–1DBF
*Latin Extended Additional 1E00–1EFF
*Letterlike Symbols 2100–214F
*Enclosed Alphanumerics 2460–24FF
*Latin Extended-C 2C60–2C7F
*Latin Extended-D A720–A7FF
*Alphabetic Presentation Forms (Latin ligatures) FB00–FB4F
*Halfwidth and Fullwidth Forms (fullwidth Latin letters) FF00–FFEF
*Mathematical Alphanumeric Symbols 1D400–1D7FF

The "extended" ranges contain mainly precomposed diacritics that may be equivalently encoded with combining diacritics, as well as some ligatures, used in the orthography of various African languages (including click symbols in Latin Extended-B) and the Vietnamese language (Latin Extended Additional).Latin Extended-C contains additions for Uighur and the Claudian letters. Latin Extended-D is made up of characters that are mostly of interest to medievalists.
