Explanation

When data residency regulations require that data for a specific region remain physically within that region and be auditable in isolation, the instance-level multi-tenancy pattern is the correct choice. A dedicated Cloud SQL instance for Country A can be deployed in that country's region, providing hard isolation at the infrastructure level. Schema-level (option A), table-level (option C), and database-level (option D) patterns all share underlying compute and storage resources, which does not satisfy strict data residency and auditability requirements.
