basic geographic structure

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello

I need help with the data model of a basic geographic structure
Country > State/Region > Sub-Region

Most of the countries have a 3 level, so i want to do this
_________
Country
contry_id
...
_________
Region
region_id
country_id
....
__________
Sub-region
sub_region_id
region_id
_________
Client
client_id
sub_region_id

My Question:

Some countries do no have 3rd level (Sub-region) what is the best way to manage this when normaly my Client table needs to be linked to the 3er level data (sub_region_id)

Thank you, any tips will be appreciated

Dario
