Each country \/ Language name is translated in the system language. If you add additional languages to the system, then you should add the translation of each country to the new language column. The country list is a complete list of countries so it is unlikely that you will need to add a new one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Beside the country list is a list of corresponding nationalities. For example, someone from the United Kingdom would have nationality British and a person from France would have a nationality of French.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-states-and-provinces\">States and&nbsp;Provinces<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>States are the largest geographical area within a country. You should add the states that you sell properties in so they can be selected in the address hierarchy. In some countries these are not called states, but other terms may be used.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Provinces is the term used in the system for the next tier of area. In smaller countries, this may not exist as a tier, in which case simply repeat the State.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-municipalities-and-cities\">Municipalities and Cities<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The next two tiers of Municipality and City (or town) are common to most countries, although the terminology may be different<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-complexes\">Complexes<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Complexes or buildings with multiple units is the smallest unit in Respacio. These also allow you to add a map reference (Longitude\/Latitude) so that when a property is added, the mapping is automatic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-methodology\">Methodology<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>When you add a record to the state tab of the sheet, you also need to add the Country in which it is located and then add the State.
