Different countries have different providers, use different radio frequencies, etc and thus have different hardware and so on. Phones made for a particular market might not function well (or at all) in another market. This has historically been a barrier to cross-border adoption, though it has gotten a bit better in recent years.

No, but bonus credit. I went Vax VMS, DEC Alpha DUX, Slackware, slowaris (x86 Solaris), Redhat, then LFS, Gentoo, RHEL, Solaris 9, and then eventually a little of everything else.
