There is a reason that libreoffice puts l10n data into separate
subpackages. libreoffice currently builds with 69 languages. The size of
UI l10n data is 2-3 MB per language. In addition, about half of the
langpacks contain help. That's another 20+ MB per language. That makes
1.4 GB of installed size (194 MB even without help). Plus dependencies:
the langpacks pull in hunspell, mythes, autocorr and font packages for
given langugage.

Btw, I'm not sure what do you mean by "divide langpacks by country". The
langpacks are divided by language; only pt is further divided by region
(pt-PT and pt-BR) and zh by variant (zh-Hans and zh-Hant).
