Editing the provinces/state drop down menu section (checkout page)

Hello everyone!

This is something specific for the choose the province in Canada/State in the USA during the checkout process.

Currently in Canada for example; on the dropdown menu, it shows us

“Alberta”

How can we edit the text for this to show something else? Like, Alberta – AB

or if in the USA, instead of “Arizona” – for it to show = Arizona – AZ

Basically editing it, so it shows something else (custom) versus the default settings.

Thanks in advance!
