Countries
Superusers can now update and edit the list of countries and country-related objects like regions, places, and translations via our Admin App without the assistance of our support team.
Please consider that access to the Admin App is available via a direct link, by adding /appadmin to your COMET homepage address, e.g., http://comet.concacaf.com/appadmin or http://comet.irishfa.com/appadmin.
