Exactly, that's one of the goals i'm looking for. Idealy, that
customization wouldn't apply to country-level only, Colombian cultural
richness is thanks to more than 90 ethnic groups, some of them have big

rejection of software by one of this group, because it had elements of
another one.

identified around this. Maybe directionality (no only in texts, but in
all the interface), iconography, time/space concepts, interaction
between individuals, etc?
