Description of issue and steps to recreate

When a ChurchCRM is set up to host a non-USA locale and address defaults, any people added that happen to have USA addresses are not handled correctly. Specifically, the USA state is replaced with whatever the ChurchCRM default (local) state is, and the country is omitted.

To recreate

1. Setup ChurchCRM with non-USA locale and default country/state to be non-USA. For this example I am using:
   Locale: en_AU
   Default Country: Australia
   Default State: NSW
2. Create a person and associated family with a valid USA address:

3. Generate a "People Directory" (or mailing label etc) - note state is "NSW" (should be "CA") and country is missing:

Expected result

People Directory should correctly show the USA state and list "United States" as the country.

A better way to do this, and for it to work globally, would be to compare the country of the church with the country of the person and not to simply hard code it for the USA

[DawoudIO]

we should open a ticket that removes the US check and compare the system Country.

Still an issue.

The USA is hard coded in some areas, hence the strange behavior.
