Answer 1

No

Each country (and sometimes each state/province) has their own laws and registration requirements for companies.

It is possible to transfer a business and other assets from one company to another (within or across jurisdictions) - this will usually have tax implications. It is also usually possible to operate in a country with a foreign company.
