Why do some pages include a dedicated field for Country?

In order to improve mapping accuracy, we have added a new "Country" dropdown menu to a number of default NationBuilder page types, including: user-submitted events, petitions and signup pages.

This will help reduce confusion between such similarly named places as Glasgow, Kentucky and Glasgow, Scotland.

    We’re using this feature for a customer who has been in need of it. It is a great development for them since they are a truly global movement and they have been getting a lot of bad matches for some African countries in particular. My question is, why does the country form element reset to the default country once submitted? It should show the user’s selection. This will cause confusion for users if a landing page isn’t selected. I can see some users attempting to resubmit.
