Geographic headings can be established in the Name Authority File if they are names of political jurisdictions, or the Subject Authority File, if they are non-jurisdictional geographic names or entities that have a geographic extent (like mountains, rivers, parks, farms, etc.)

Check this list to see what type of heading is established where and follow the instructions linked to below.
