This question relates to:French lesson "En/Dans = in/to + regions/states/counties (French Prepositions)"

For those who might be wondering about this (I also had the same question), we use venir de / venir du / venir des. It's described here:
Venir de/d'/du/des = To come/be from with countries/states/regions and continents (French Prepositions)
For example: I come from Yorkshire. = Je viens du Yorkshire.
