    So, my location when "Amaury" is Ellensburg, WA, US, which is:

    • City: Ellensburg
    • State: Washington
    • Country: United States

    That's the proper order.

    However, for the longest time I didn't include my city, so it was United States, WA, which is:

    • Country: United States
    • State: Washington

    However, now I'm wondering if that order was wrong. Should it have been Washington, US? As in:

    • State: Washington
    • Country: United States

    What's correct when not including the city?

    When referring to geographic scale, it would make more sense for it to have been Washington, US, because Washington is found within the United States, and not vice versa. Similar to how Ellensburg is found within Washington.
