After a break I've got to a similar conclusion, it's better to not mention any country or a region in general. I'll update that.

Hm, I certainly missed that. In Berlin, we are not using LLVM's CoC. I think the reason was that it did not exist when we started (I just checked, and indeed the meetup group was created two weeks after the first draft has landed).
I can remove the line about "any other CoC" if there is a strict requirement for the socials to follow LLVM's CoC.

If that's the case, then we'll need to reconsider code of conduct we are following at Berlin socials, but honestly, I don't think it's worth the effort, especially given that Berlin CoC does not contradict LLVM's CoC.
