Nice summary!

So here's my problem.  A lot of my constituency resides in CN,
occasionally including people at frequently problematic domains like
163.com.  Do you know any resources (or keywords to start googling
even!) at subnational levels?  KR and CN breakdowns would be most
useful to me; breakdowns for RU and former USSR would be appreciated
by many of my colleagues.

This is helpful regardless of whether there are subnational
breakdowns.  I got the point the first time! :-)
