> Malta is a country, Sicily is a region

Regions can sign deals too…?

[yellow_lead]

A country is a region.

I believe GP's intent was to point out that a company can get into an agreement with a government (make an offer they can't refuse), but a company cannot get a "region" to sign an agreement/contract with them.

Regional governments exist: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Politics_of_Sicily

[nixass]

Yes the continents too

[ashirviskas]

What region is UK?

[dgellow]

That whole thread is absurd, but if I would have to answer I would say Great Britain is the name of the region/group of islands? Open to be wrong, I know little about the UK

[SahAssar]

Great Britain is the big island.

UK (United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland) is a country consisting of several countries and other territories.

with a president called Renato Schifani.

It doesn't make it any less-region

[auggierose]

But what exactly is your point?

[rvnx]

38.1097387° N, 13.3520066° E

[nixass]

What's their point?

[fragmede]

Because Sicily has a President, an offer to them that can't be refused, can be made. Can a region sign contracts? In this case, yes.

[nixass]

lol "president"

I have a president in my neighborhood's polka club too.
