Flags — the regions we asked our observer pool for while recording this ad in this channel. That is a label on our request, not a confirmed place of viewing: when no account is available in the requested country the pool silently substitutes another and does not say so.

The channel's main country (by its language) is highlighted in blue; regions under 5% are collapsed into +N.
