Hi,

Greetings!

Unfortunately,you can't add/create the new States or Country values using Metadata API as suggested here (https://help.salesforce.com/apex/HTViewHelpDoc?id=admin_state_country_picklists_api.htm#:~:text=You%20can%20use%20the%20Metadata,picklists%20in%20your%20sandbox%20org.).

However,you can only edit the existing States/countries as suggested in the above document.

Kindly mark it as best answer if it helps so that it can help others in the future.

Warm Regards,
