I noticed they changed it:

It means that you can play it wherever you are, the specified country is only needed to activate it.

...and most games only shows the first one.

As for why some games aren't playable in other countries, it could be the similar case with L4D Germany---where if you own any other version of the games, you won't be able to play it when you're in Germany.
