    >>> get_timezone_name(tz, 'short', locale='en_US')
    u'PT'

    If no localized display name for the timezone is available, and the timezone
    is associated with a country that uses only a single timezone, the name of
    that country is returned, formatted according to the locale:

    >>> tz = get_timezone('Europe/Berlin')
    >>> get_timezone_name(tz, locale='de_DE')
    u'Mitteleurop\xe4ische Zeit'
    >>> get_timezone_name(tz, locale='pt_BR')
    u'Hor\xe1rio da Europa Central'

    On the other hand, if the country uses multiple timezones, the city is also
    included in the representation:

    >>> tz = get_timezone('America/St_Johns')
    >>> get_timezone_name(tz, locale='de_DE')
    u'Neufundland-Zeit'

    Note that short format is currently not supported for all timezones and
    all locales.  This is partially because not every timezone has a short
    code in every locale.  In that case it currently falls back to the long
    format.

    what a given time would translate to in a different timezone without
    information about whether daylight savings time is in effect or not. This
