When creating or upgrading a database, use this attribute to associate a non-default territory with the database. Setting the territory attribute overrides the default system territory for that database. The default system territory is found using java.util.Locale.getDefault().
Specify a territory in the form ll_CC, where ll is the two letter language code, and CC is the two letter country code.
