United Kingdom

This dimension groups transport networks by the country where their headquarters is based. Wikipedia defines a headquarters as "the location where most or all of the important functions of an organization are coordinated," and that location is often a different country from where the network actually operates. Browsing by headquarters country separates where a network is run from where it is used.
