The addition of these territories to iTunes Connect is a preview of the fact that these countries should be able to purchase books through the iBookstore soon. Making it available to the authors ahead of time will ensure that there is content available in those markets when the store goes live there.
Previously, authors were only able to choose from the US, UK, France, Germany, Australia, and Canada.
