ISO-8859-9
Latin5 replaces the rarely needed Icelandic letters in Latin1 with the Turkish (tr) ones.
ISO-8859-10
Latin6 rearranged Latin4, added the last missing Inuit (Greenlandic Eskimo) and non-Skolt Sami (Lappish) letters, and reintroduced the rarely Icelandic letters to cover the entire Nordic area:
*Estonian (et)
*Lapp
*Latvian (lv)
*Lithuanian (lt)
Skolt Sami still needs a few more accents.
ISO-8859-11
To cover the Thai language. On UNIX systems, this is similar to the tis620 encoding.
ISO-8859-13
To cover the Baltic Rim. Latin7 is going to cover the Baltic Rim and re-establish the Latvian (lv) support lost in Latin6 and may introduce the local quotation marks. It resembles WinBaltic, that is, windows-1257.
ISO-8859-14
To cover Celtic. Latin8 adds the last Gaelic and Welsh (cy) letters to Latin1 to cover all Celtic languages.
ISO-8859-15
