I am a beginnner and I want to use WEAP-LEAP for my country. As I understood from the tutorials was that it can be used for basins/watersheds. Can it also be used for a nation considering political boundaries?

Both LEAP and WEAP are flexible as to the scale of their analysis. Although WEAP models are typically at the basin or watershed level, you can certainly create a national-scale WEAP model, which you should be able to link to a national-scale LEAP energy model.
Thanks for the reply but I also want to know if I already have data for surface and ground water availability and demand data for that political boundary, Can I simply enter that data into WEAP?
