Initial visibility: currently defaults to autocollapse
To set this template's initial visibility, the |state=
parameter may be used:
|state=collapsed
: {{Regions of the world|state=collapsed}} to show the template collapsed, i.e., hidden apart from its title bar
|state=expanded
: {{Regions of the world|state=expanded}} to show the template expanded, i.e., fully visible
|state=autocollapse
: {{Regions of the world|state=autocollapse}}
- shows the template collapsed to the title bar if there is a {{navbar}}, a {{sidebar}}, or some other table on the page with the collapsible attribute
- shows the template in its expanded state if there are no other collapsible items on the page
If the |state=
parameter in the template on this page is not set, the template's initial visibility is taken from the |default=
parameter in the Collapsible option template. For the template on this page, that currently evaluates to autocollapse
.

where name is one of the following words that identify the groups/sections (omit any speech or quotation marks): - Africa=expanded
- Asia=expanded
- Europe=expanded

- Oceania=expanded
- S America=expanded
- Polar=expanded
