We keep locations by ID - this ensures that spelling isn't that much of an issue for players trying to find out the whereabouts of other characters in vicinity of their own.
As long as what you enter into the 'location' text field is a reasonably unambiguous (and proper) representation of a location, the script will find it. Examples:
"Strasbourg" = Terra: Europe: Europe: Waterkant: Strasbourg
"United States of America" = Terra: North America: United States of America.
"America: America" = Terra: North America: United States of America
Unique because no nation with 'America' in its name exists on any American continent.
Brevity is actually much better than the full qualified names, so try to pick the shortest phrase you feel is unambiguous.
