[AccessD] Geography revisited

I don't have to solve the world's address problems, but I do have to 
solve some of them. USA and CDN I have under control. Other nations of 
interest include basically everyone in the EU. I'm hoping for answers 
from people either from each nation or from people with knowledge of same.

1. What corresponds to states/provinces in Ireland, England, Scotland, 
Wales, Germany, France, Netherlands, Belgium, Spain, Italy, Switzerland 
(I know it's cantons in the last, but I don't know their names).

2. Some countries, I know, place the street name before the street 
number. Can we define this arrangement more precisely (by nation)?

3. Not immediately relevant, but is Singapore a city-state or part of 
China or what?

TIA,
Arthur
