 When a ''widely accepted English name'', exists for a former country or empire, we should use it. For example, [[New Spain|New Spain]] rather than ''Virreinato de Nueva España'', [[Ottoman Empire|Ottoman Empire]] rather than دولتْ علیّه عثمانیّه or ''Osmanlı İmparatorluğu''.
+===Country Name Included in Locality Page Title===
+The country should be listed in any locality page to clarify where the locality page is.
+:'''''Exceptions:'''''
+:*"United States" should not be included in the title of county locality pages, but should be included in the breadcrumb
+::<font color="green">Correct:</font> Warren County, Ohio Genealogy<br>
+::<font color="red">Incorrect:</font> Warren County, Ohio, United States Genealogy<br>
+:*Territories and islands belonging to a specific county should not include the country in the title of the locality page, but should be included in the breadcrumb
+::<font color="green">Correct:</font> Réunion Island Genealogy<br>
+::<font color="red">Incorrect:</font> Réunion Island, France Genealogy<br>
 ===Country Name vs. Nationality ===
 Any locality Wiki pages and locality topic pages should only include the country name and not the nationality in the title. For example, it is Mexico Probate Records not Mexican Probate Records. Nationality can be used in other situations such as articles about immigration. For example, Chinese in America.
 === Disambiguation  ===
