Answer 1

The page you are referring to uses a single capturing group and you could use \R to match a unicode newline sequence.

Find what

"country":\h+"([^"]+)",\R("name":\h+"[^"]+)(",)

Replace with:

$2, $1$3

Check Wrap around, enable Regular expression and click Replace All

Result

"name": "Sant Julià de Lòria, AD",
"name": "Pas de la Casa, BE",
"name": "Ordino, IT",
"name": "les Escaldes, AD",
