+Region and Country data in AdventureLog is provided by an open source project: [dr5hn/countries-states-cities-database](https://github.com/dr5hn/countries-states-cities-database).

+```bash
+docker exec -it <container> bash
+```
+
+Once you are in the container run the following command to resync the region data.
+
+```bash
+python manage.py download-countries
+```
