Subregion

This dimension groups countries by the geographic subregion they belong to, such as Southeast Asia or West Africa. Wikipedia notes that "apart from the global continental regions, there are also hydrospheric and atmospheric regions that cover the oceans, and discrete climates above the land and water masses of the planet," showing how many layers of regional grouping actually exist. Browsing by subregion groups countries more tightly than continent alone.
