Administrative regions

---

The word "region" is taken from the Latin regio, and a number of countries have borrowed the term as the formal name for a type of subnational entity (eg, the región, used in Chile). In English, the word is also used as the conventional translation for equivalent terms in other languages (e.g., the область (oblast), used in Russia alongside with a broader term регион).

@SteveAndrews Oh, dear, that's just wrong. Now I understand. I use regions occasionally, but sparingly, and not for XML comments!
