Template:US State Top Level

US State Top Level is the second-level domain for geographic-based domains in the state of No State abbreviation given. No domain will exist with this exact name, any domains that are organized as part of this will be a subdomain. This type of domain follows the standard for geographic-based domains in the .US top-level domain which is for the United States. The next level below US State Top Level is either "state" for state government, an educational facility (like K12 for schools, CC for community colleges, LIB for libraries, etc.), or the name of a city or county. Below that is the particular domain, which can be a particular organization, person or agency.

Here are some examples:

somelib.lib.US State Top Level - A Library located in No State abbreviation given
state.US State Top Level - State government (may also use No State abbreviation given.GOV or [[{{{1}}}.GOV]])
someschool.K12.US State Top Level - An elementary school
ci.somecity.US State Top Level - City government of Somecity
co.somecounty.US State Top Level - County government of Somecounty
somecompany.somecity.US State Top Level - A company located in Somecity

Note that being under a locality-based domain does not mean that the domain is actually located in that locality. For example, Paul Robinson owns the domain paul.washington.dc.us, even though he does not live in Washington, DC, and this domain has never been operated from a server in the District of Columbia.
