AIUI it basically farms it off to langtable, so let's stop guessing and look at langtable: https://raw.github.com/mike-fabian/langtable/master/data/languages.xml I think that's it, anyhow. As I'm reading it, it has the concept that a 'language' can map to an arbitrary number of 'territories' (and various other things that don't concern us here). Territories are defined here: https://github.com/mike-fabian/langtable/blob/master/data/territories.xml >From a brief look through that, it looks like it's basically the concept of a 'territory' doesn't really extend down to state/province/county etc. level. Instead it looks to be pretty much a straight out https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_3166-1 listing - i.e., it's basically 'countries', with fudges for politically sensitive cases like Hong Kong and Taiwan. So if I'm reading things right, no, langtable doesn't currently make any attempt to associate each Indian language with a territory any more specific than 'India', and as currently implemented, couldn't actually do this. Mike may well correct me if I'm wrong and he's reading, though. It may be the case that he'd consider it valid to extend the concept of a 'territory' down to province/state level but just hasn't implemented it yet, or it may be that he considers it to be strictly tied to the ISO 3166 standard.
