What is the difference for example between
Locale FRENCH vs Locale FRANCE
and
Locale GERMAN vs Locale GERMANY
I am searching, but I can’t find the anything about the difference in the documentation. Any idea?
French and German are spoken in more countries than just France and Germany. In different countries they will have different currencies, different ways of writing numbers, etc. That’s why you can indicate both the language & region of your locale, and that’s why you can define specific resources for each language/region-combination (e.g. de-DE for Germany vs de-AT for Austria, or fr-FR for France vs fr-rCA for Canada).
