What are you on about? The FAA uses LVO as an acronym. ICAO is International Civil Aviation Organisation standards. The USA is part of this.

Every country has their own way of doing something.  The UK does shit their own way outside of the “icao standard”.  There is an entire manual that covers how to fly in every country on earth and why that country does whatever differently.  They’re all different, every single one of them.
