Resolution
If it is necessary for you to implement a particular Country as a separate country in your solution, it is possible to engage with a certified SAP Partner for them to implement an additional Country and the associated objects like a dedicated Set of Books,etc., by employing the Localization Tool Kit. Since some limitations do exist for this, you are strongly advised to discuss your specific requirements in detail with your SAP Partner.
