Hi

 As each Country has its own RF agencies and use different RF spectrum, Cisco needs to follow each country rule. So, thats why Regulatory domain exist.

 "Universal Regulatory Domain"

"The aim of introducing Universal SKU AP is to address the worldwide regulatory compliance requirement based on geo-location of the Cisco Wireless Access Points (APs). Solution will collapse all current regulatory domains into a single SKU APs. This will be applicable only to newer -UX PIDs introduced and will not affect the existing APs that are preconfigured with a specific regulatory configuration."

Regulatory domain using to select complied AP for different countries. different countries have different limitations for radio frequency usage around country. you can configure supported domain in wlc. check this link for configurations and more details.

ROW stands for "Rest Of the World".  This was first introduced in the 9136.

There's a TAC guide for ROW at https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/docs/wireless/catalyst-9800-series-wireless-controllers/217734-connect-and-join-a-row-domain-access-po.html

Note that Universal (UX) was a short-lived idea on some older 802.11n and Wave 1 AC APs which Cisco abandoned even before the APs went end of life leaving many stranded because it relied on a smartphone app which Cisco stopped supporting.

Never buy a -UX AP unless you are absolutely sure you will be able to get it configured - many have made this mistake and regretted it.  They're often cheap because they're useless to most people.

Your question "2- what is main  Universal Regulatory Domain on wireless AP Cisco CI9136?" makes no sense because Universal only applied to those old APs - it does not apply to the 9136.
