I've already obtained the distribution for both tables showing record counts by association. Now I need to understand the overall geographic distribution better by examining: 1) How many unique associations exist across both tables, 2) The combined distribution, and 3) Any regional patterns. Let me query for the combined view across both tables to see the total geographic coverage.",
