Cannot create Azure B2C tenant in Australia region - azure

I'm trying to create Azure B2C tenant in Australia region but can't find Australia in the region drop down. Documentation says Azure B2C tenant is available in all locations. Am i missing some thing?

Based on Data residency of Azure Active Directory B2C:
The following countries/regions are in the process of being added to
the list. For now, you can still use Azure AD B2C by picking any of
the countries/regions above.
Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, Iraq, New
Zealand, Paraguay, Peru, Uruguay, and Venezuela.
So Australia is still in the process to come. It's not available yet at this moment.

Azure Active Directory B2C shows two different locations for the same tenant

I have created five B2C tenants in EU West, all in the same EU West based resource group.
When I navigate to cost analysis it shows that it is based in the US.
It is a must that all the user data will be stored in EU West (Amsterdam). Which is why this is concerning.
Am I missing something, or is this a visual bug?
I tried to reproduce the same in my environment and got the below results:
I created one resource group in West Europe Location and created 2 B2C tenants in the same group as below:
When I checked Cost analysis tab, it is showing EU West as Location like below:
I checked the same in Cost analysis (Preview) tab and got the same location as below:
In your last screenshot, I can see Unassigned under Subscriptions for all those B2C tenants which may be the issue.
Please recheck whether the B2C tenants are linked with right subscription or not by visiting their Overview page like below:
The resource group might be in US, but if you go into the AADB2C tenant, and view it’s properties, it’ll state it’s DC location properly.

How to test Azure AD in Azure government?

I want to test some Azure AD features on Azure US government, but I don't know how. For normal azure active directory, I would go to demo.microsoft.com and create a tenant.
There, the only government related option is "World Wide Government" but there is nothing suggesting that it is actually on Azure Government cloud.
Also, after creating the tenant it says that it is in North America with "World Wide Government" content pack, which to me it means that it is on normal Azure.
So basically, the question is where to create a demo account and how to log in to the portal (is it still portal.azure.com)?
Go here and setup a free trial for Azure Government: https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/global-infrastructure/government/request/

Connecting to an Azure Subscription in Azure China using an application created in Azure General region gives "AADSTS70001" error

I have created a native application in an Azure AD in Azure General region. The application has been granted appropriate permissions (Sign in on user's behalf, execute Service Management API requests etc.). Using this application, I am able to connect to any Azure Subscription in Azure General region using this application.
However when I try to connect to an Azure Subscription in Azure China, after successful login, I am getting the following error:
AADSTS70001: Application with identifier '01234567-890a-bcde-ffff-fcc63fc150ea' was not
found in the directory 'xxx.yyy.onmschina.cn'.
So my questions are:
Is it possible to connect to an Azure Subscription in Azure China (or for that matter to any Azure Subscription in Azure Sovereign Cloud like Germany etc.) using an application created in Azure General region?
Or do I need to create a separate application for each Azure Sovereign region in an Azure AD in that region?
If I indeed need to create a separate application (i.e. answer is yes to above question), is it possible to create an Azure AD tenant in these Sovereign regions without having an Azure Subscription there?
I believe the answer to the last question is yes considering Azure AD and Azure Subscription are two different things, yet I would very much like to get a confirmation on the same.
No,
it is NOT possible to connect Azure "General" with any sovereign clouds - these are Azure US Government, Azure China, Azure Germany. All these clouds are completely separate deployments with their own Azure AD. You cannot use B2B inter clouds, you cannot use your multi-tenant applications across clouds.
For that case you have to have a subscription in every cloud you would like to support and separate application registration, and separate instructions for your users. Check for example how Azure CLI is handling this. You are always only connected to one cloud with cloud's specific account.
In Azure Germany you can create an Azure AD tenant - just create a free trial subscription and you will also get a tenant. For China and US Gov will be hard - they both have very strict requirements who can create subscriptions there.

How to integrate Azure + O365 subscription

We have a O365 subscription. We have a Azure subscription.
However, the Azure subscription is originally set up with a personal(!) account with was identical to that persons O365 account.
(personal account somebody#company.nl was created and used to setup Azure while that person also had a O365 account with the name somebody#company.nl)
When I log on to Azure using henrov#company.nl I have to choose 'personal' account to log on to Azure. I do see our subscription. I understand that our Azure subscription has in fact nothing to do with our O365 subscription.
However, if I go to PowerBI in O365 and install a datagateway I need to login with my O365 account henrov#company.nl. When I the choose to install a gateway on Azure I get logged in as henrov#company.nl (School/Work account). To be followed by the message: "you have no subscriptions".
I understand what is happening. Somebody#company.nl messed up while setting up Azure. But what can I do to correct this? Would it be better to setup a complete new Azure subscription using a different adress? Or can I somehow merge the existing Azure subscription with our O365 subscription?
That's because you can actually have a Microsoft account created using your corporate e-mail, but it doesn't mean it is an organisational account like the one you have when you create an Office 365 tenant or any other service which relies on Azure AD platform.
Login to your Azure subscription using the service administrator of that subscription (the personal Microsoft account) and follow this guide to transfer the subscription to another tenant owner, that is, the global administrator of your corporate tenant.

Finally, change the directory associated with that subscription.

You can do the latter only if you want.

What happens when you select a country in Azure AD B2C

I am a bit confused about the meaning of country/region when creating a new tenant.
This is not the region I am used to from other services (like West US, West Europe, ...).
So: what exactly is the meaning when I select 'Germany' here? What happens?
Depending on the country you choose, Azure AD B2C selects the closest data center/region that will hold your Azure AD B2C directory. Currently, Azure AD B2C only uses the European and North American regions. If you select Germany, your Azure AD B2C directory will be created in a data center in the European region.
