I omitted South America First, then I got confused if only NA and
LATAM will cover all the countries..so I added South America. :)
Perhaps People from America can suggest what will be the best.
Thank you for raising this point.

This will be hard...TRAC executes standard sql query, so if someone
Types country as 'India' and someone else as INDIA, they will be
listed under two different countries.
Let me see what can be done.

I shall look into this if I can use a text field in place of the drop down menu.
