How to find what country a Facebook Page or Group originated

Hello All,

I would like to find out if its possible to tell which country a facebook business page or group originated from.

I am looking for pages in the US, Europe and Canada but cant tell what country they were originally made for.

Any advice would be appreciated...

Thanks

Thanks for the response,

Yes its for marketing purposes, Maybe i wasn't specific.

e.g I am looking for Facebook pages relating to mobile sites in Canada, USA, Europe, Asia.

I'm not looking to advertise, i am more searching for them.

I think the only thing you can do is type in "mobile sites" to the facebook search https://www.facebook.com/search/more/?q=mobile%20sites and get them one by one. I don't see an advanced option.

Location is not a required field. So unless they have it posted, it would not do any good.

But it is a possibility...and the only one to go on. Getting 10% is better than 0%.

You do have a point.

In that case, maybe the Facebook Places Directory will be of some help:

You can choose a location, United States for instance, and then on the following page you will have a listing of Places, Pages, etc.

Or to get more granular results, choose a specific location:
