Default Design Question

Sorry to post another question but I'm still thinking I've missed something,
only because I didn't realize the other piece of the puzzle.

I think seeing the "spreadsheet" of what exists today is handicapping my
design.

Please if somebody could help me understand. Right now, we have two
different offerings. Within each offering we have the same regions and
countries but the difference lies with the levels of support offered (4, one
no service, or null value). So I could have Offering 1...then shows
APAC....then showing the country Australia has 1st level of support. But on
the Offering 2 there is no service.

Again I have these tables,

Region_t
RegionID(PK), Region

Country_t
CountryID(PK), Country, RegionID(FK)

Support
SupportID(PK), Support Description, CountryID(FK), RegionID(FK) ---is this
right?

And how do I incorporate the 2 offerings? Does that start at top above
region? Do I include the offering as a FK in the Region table? Sorry I'm
lost and really trying to do things the right way. Since things are always
added on, I'm preparing for Languages spoken to be thrown my way, just wonder
if it would be easy to incorporate later on? Assuming it would be another
table, connected to region perhaps? I really appreciate everyone's help.
