# Find your dropdown element by the following, finds the element in the dropdown named BRA
Dropdown_Element = driver.find_element(By.XPATH, "//*[text()='BRA']").click()

# Store the ActionChains class inside the actions variable
actions = ActionChains(driver)

# Click on the element using the click(on_element=)
actions.click(on_element=Dropdown_Element)
time.sleep(2)
actions.perform()

# Hopes this helped :)

dropdown in selenium

1-Select dropdowns:are created by using <select> tag in HTML
2-HTML dropdowns:these are the dropdowns that are created NOT USING <select>
These dropdowns are handled just like any other webElement. 
Select select = new Select(driver.findElement(LOCATOR));
1-selectByVisibleText(String arg); 
2-byIndex(int arg);
3-byValue:    
.getFirstSelectedOption() .getOptions(); 
.getAllSelectedOptions();.deSelectAll();
