Rom/ISO region question

Dumb question but when a ROM or ISO has say (USA, Europe), (UE), (UEJ), etc. that means that the game is virtually identical in all of the listed regions, right? I see this so often and I just want to be sure.

Yes, this is common with portable systems like GameBoy and such at least. There is also (World) ROM files that are exact same in all regions released.
Rare for old console games but in rare cases happens.

For the most part, yes; especially with portable systems like the Game Boy and Game Gear.
