Magento 2 Custom Regions extension allows the store owner to add the state or province for not defined countries in the default Magento Store.
Tax implementation is not possible without state and zip code that’s why the merchant needs the custom region module.
The store owner can also use the CSV file to upload the regions for multiple counties at once.
The customer can select the address at checkout through Google Map for quick and easy shopping.

Custom Regions Module Installation
The customers will get a zip folder and they have to extract the contents of this zip folder on their system. The extracted folder has an src folder, inside the src folder you have the app folder.
Then, you need to transfer this app folder into the Magento2 root directory on the server as shown below:
After the successful installation, you have to run these commands in the Magento2 root directory:
First Command:
php bin/magento setup:upgrade
Second Command:
php bin/magento setup:di:compile
Third Command:
php bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy
Multi-Lingual Configuration – Custom Regions
Now, for the multilingual support, the admin will navigate through Store->Configuration->General ->Locale Options.
Then, Select the locale as German (the language into which the admin wants to translate his store content).
Language Translation
If the user wants to translate their module from English to German then they need to follow the path
app/code/Webkul/CustomRegions/i18n in their unzipped Custom Regions folder and will get a CSV file with the name “en_US.csv”.
Now they will rename that csv as “de_DE.csv” and translate all right side content after the comma in the German language. After editing the CSV, save it and then upload it to the
path app/code/Webkul/CustomRegions/i18n where they have installed Magento2 on their server.
Then the module will get translated into the German Language. It supports both the LTR and RTL languages.

Now, Buyers can select the address at checkout through Google Maps.
NOTE: Google map is only visible when a customer enters a new address at the time of checkout.
