Locale
A Locale represents a specific geographical, political, or cultural region. An operation that requires a Locale to perform its task is called locale-sensitive and uses the Locale to tailor information for the user. For example, displaying a date is a locale-sensitive operation-the date should be formatted according to the customs or conventions of the user's native country, region, or culture.

From the Locale drop-down box, select a Locale based on your language and location.
