Sure but structure is more with database structure, not with style structure. For example, maybe you might want to use a dt-dd or ul-li and generate a tabular data through CSS. This is usually done on menus when doing some webdev. Mdtext is not a logical structure but a presentation structure which basically restrict the development of mantainable websites because it doesnt allow the modification through CSS or JS. The structure there should have been something like a JSON string carrying the values for country, link, state, localization, Javascript could then parse that data, and put it on some table structure and loop through it.
