<field-label mime-type="text-plain"><![CDATA[Country of Residence]]></field-label>
<field-label mime-type="text-plain" lang="en_GB"><![CDATA[Country of Residence]]></field-label>
<field-label mime-type="text-plain" lang="en_US"><![CDATA[Country of Residence]]></field-label>
<field-description><![CDATA[country]]></field-description>
<field-description lang="en_GB"><![CDATA[country]]></field-description>
<field-description lang="en_US"><![CDATA[country]]></field-description>
<picklist-id> country</picklist-id>
</field-definition>

Correct the picklist option selected by removing the spelling mistake, preceding space, or ending space.
