#### Q&A
**Q:** Why do certain countries have scrapers for its states/provinces/regions
while others have a single scraper for the whole country?
**A:** This depends on the data source. If a source contains content for the
whole country, a single scraper is needed. It's more common for a data
source to exist for a region within a country, than for the whole country.
