Does anyone know what to do when your country isn't divided into states? For example, Denmark. we do have regions, but it didn't seem to work when i wrote "Region Midtjylland", and i am not sure if that is what to write. What should i write if i needed to get the city Silkeborg?

Hi there, try running the script with the following parameters:
--city "Silkeborg Kommune" --state "Region Midtjylland" --country "Danmark"

I also just found out that Denmark has other naming standards in OSM, which include 'Kommune' or 'Region'. These parameters should work, but it will most likely require a lot of RAM and time to generate because it is a bigger city. You might want to generate some smaller cities if this one takes too long. I'm already working on a fix which should reduce the generation time drastically, I'm looking forward to release it in the next few days. Reach me out if you need help with other city names!
