<title>Description</title>
<para><command>localectl</command> may be used to query and change
the system locale and keyboard layout settings.</para>
<para>The system locale controls the language settings of system
services and of the UI before the user logs in, such as the
display manager, as well as the default for users after
login.</para>
<para>The keyboard settings control the keyboard layout used on
the text console and of the graphical UI before the user logs in,
such as the display manager, as well as the default for users
after login.</para>
<para>Use
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd-firstboot</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>
to initialize the system locale for mounted (but not booted)
system images.</para>
