      // print this locale
      System.out.println("Locale1: " + locale1);

      // create a second locale
      Locale locale2 = new Locale("Owner", "Sonoo");
      System.out.println("Locale2: " + locale2);
      
      // create a third locale
      Locale locale3 = new Locale("Owner", "Sonoo");

      // compare locale2 and locale3
      System.out.println("Locale2 and Locale3 are equal: " + locale2.equals(locale3));
      
      // create a fourth locale
      Locale locale4 = new Locale("Company", "javatpoint");
