On second thought, it might be difficult to get the domain module to work with the requirement of some sections being "aggregation's of data" eg. the New Zealand section would need to contain all data from NZ + each district and town in NZ.
I actually did something very similar on D5 with just taxonomy + views. In this case all you need is a hierarchical taxonomy with your regions - -countries --districts ---towns Then you create the site as a set of views, each with a taxonomy term argument and a depth (depending on the depth of the taxonomy above). So for example blogs would be a view and in a country section you'd have all blog content from that country + child terms, then a town section would only contain content from that town. You can also use a negative depth to get the opposite effect so town section includes all content from it's parents. Some other modules used :- taxonomy_menu - automatically creates a menu based on the taxonomy. hierarchical_select - useful when you've got large hierarchical taxonomies. prepopulate - so if you're inside a section and add new content it automatically sets the taxonomy for the section you're in. pathauto - hide the ugly term ID from the URL Lastly, if I had to do it again, I would now probably use pURL [ http://drupal.org/project/purl] to handle the section argument, which is how Open Atrium handles its Group ID's.
