Registration of work in multiple countries

[Dantren9101]

What is the name of your state? international (non US)

Hello,

I am creating an online course (a book might also be considered) made of written material and videos (English). The age for learning this course is high school or a higher education.

Is it enough to register it in the US or should I register it in other countries as well like China, India, etc... ?
