 --- Goal ---
 1. How can we make different address attributes mandatory ? How can we have different set of mandatory attributes for each country ?Can we change mandatory attributes or mandatory field even if we already have transactions using previous data ?
 2. What is the purpose of Define Geographies ? Is it meant only to create validation data for Locations ? OR is there anything else to it ?

 3. Do we have to maintain same country address formats in both these places (Geography Validation and address format) ?
 4. Why the field county on address does not show as LOV even if geography validation has set field to be LOV for country Ireland ?
 5. When LOV is enabled for a field (e.g. City), and Geography Validation is not enabled on it, does it mean that, we can add new Cities while defining new address ?
 6. Is there any possibility to change values of imported field value ? And what will be impact of deleting the value ?
