"Meaning of PAL - 'Phase Alternation Line'. The analog television *display standard* originally developed in Germany that is used in Western Europe, the United Kingdom, China, Australia, New Zealand, the Middle East, and parts of Africa.

The US uses the American National Television Systems Committee (NTSC) standard for analog television. "
