This document proposes a scale for defining different levels of regions from local to global. It suggests that a county would be considered a level 1 regional scale, while an organization like a regional planning commission serving multiple counties would be a level 2 region. Higher levels include multi-state regions at level 4, nations at level 5, and the largest scale as level 7 which would include entities like the United Nations or World Trade Organization spanning the entire planet. The scale is meant to provide a standardized way to classify the size and scope of different political and geographical regions.
