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.

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.
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/
One of our customer would like to use Azure AD B2C.
They need confirmation about the calculation of the free tier of the first 50k MAU, whether it is based on per Azure AD B2C resource that they create or combine for all AD B2C that were created under 1 tenant?
Any guidance would be of great help. Thanks
Billing considers all MAU from all Azure AD B2C tenants (resources). For more information please take a look to Azure Active Directory External Identities pricing.
How is Azure AD determined as P1/P2? As far i can see, P1/P2 licenses are assigned to users in a tenant. so if i assign a P1/P2 license to a single user in Azure AD will the entire tenant become Premium?
The below link talks of different retention periods for Premium tenants. How is it determined

Everything you need to know can be accessed at license-users-groups documentation
Sign in to the Azure portal using a License administrator account in your Azure AD organization.
Select Azure Active Directory, and then select Licenses.
Select the Purchased link to view the Products page and to see the Assigned, Available, and Expiring soon numbers for your license plans.
Select a plan name to see its licensed users and groups.
As you can see, P1 and P2 are not mutually exclusive, so you can't determine azure ad as the one or the other. Whether you have P2 functionality like PIM access reviews etc or not as a user, is defined by your liscence assignment. You can of course have free/P1 and P2 as any combination, depending on the costs you can manage to cover.
The difference is only at the cost per user: azure active directory costs, here
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.
