Er Eskimos in Antarctica ,Try down south . Antarctica is that big lump of land and ice at the SOUTH Pole. And there is several websites running from the various Research facilities

As for the comment about countries. Not all of the tld's are allocated to countries,several are territories such as .cc Cocos Keeling Islands Which is Australian
.ck Cook Islands Part of New Zealand

The modern education system needs to impart more knowledge regarding the Sovereign Nations of the World.

.tv – Tuvalu

Funny enough, the country itself uses the extension less than TV stations worldwide.

I always thought .TV meant .television

.FM is the Federated States of Micronesia
and
BRS, Media of Calif. USA Promotes them as .FM (for FM Radio)
as Well as .AM Armenia as .AM (for AM Radio)
(I am a registrar in AUST. For BRS.Media)

as Well as .TV Tuvalu is sold as .TV (TV)
Has nothing to do with the Inventor of FM Radio

the use of ccTLD's as Acronyms for other things is quite common
others include .ws .bz .cc .it .in
Some of you need to get out more and learn about the world.
p.s.
.AQ is administered in NewZealand ,because not much Business transacted in Antartica itself and NewZealand is a Common Home Location for the Various Groups and Research facilities .
No it is not a Country ,But most of the area is claimed (in contravention of UN treaty) by NewZealand, Australia and Denmark.

Djibouti's country code is .dj but by coincidence that's where the first DJ came from.

I had always thought that .cc is for credit cards, .fm is for radio stations, and .tv for television. After reading this thread I realized I was wrong.

So thanks to worldstar for this wonderful thread
