Regions in Project-GC refers to states/provinces/regions of a country, for example "Florida, USA", "Bayern, Germany" or "Skåne, Sweden". The region data on Geocaching.com is chosen by the cache owner but the region data at Project-GC is determined with administrative boundaries from OpenStreetMap via OSM-Boundaries and for some countries official government data is used.
