For characters on an ordinary American English keyboard, the character codes follow the ASCII standard.
For common European languages, they follow the ISO Latin-1 standard.
For other characters, they follow the Unicode standard.
Mathematica defines various additional characters in private Unicode space, with character codes between 64256 and 64300.
Character codes returned by ToCharacterCode["
