Roblox does that to make sure your account hasn't been compromised.

For instance: if you live in the United States and you see the verification code email (reminder in this scenario that you never requested one in the first place) saying that you got a login request from the United Kingdom, that means your account was compromised and you can take the necessary steps to ensure your account doesn't get compromised again.

You are aware that Google does the same as well, right? They have a whole listing of your login attempts for all the times and places that you logged in to ensure that there is no suspicious activity going on.

Your IP Address may also have something to with this, but I'm not too sure. You can legitimately search or google "what is my ip address" to find out the exact location that you live at (take a read: ) Even Wikipedia tracks your IP address! (Usually it's to track and easily block vandalism.)

Wikipedia says: "An IP address serves two principal functions: host or network interface identification and location addressing."
