Um, no, not to me. Is your question about creating a structure or accessing it?

And this data is coming from a database? If it is fixed you can just
create it as you did above; if you filled in actual values that would
be valid Python code.
Do you have any code you have tried? It helps to get specific. I
still don't really understand what you are having trouble with. Is it
- deciding on the best structure to represent the data
- reading from a database and creating a nested structure
- accessing a nested structure
?
