question About "va". Can you explain this?

Open a new Chrome tab or window. Type "va", just "va".

I'm not sure exactly what you are asking. If you are asking why there are so many search results for "VA", VA is the abreviation for the state of Virginia and for the Veterans Administration.

Are you asking a different question?

@New2Domaining no.
Typing "va", without any extension redirects to http://w2.vatican.va/ , the Vatican site.

try also www.va (without extension)

I tried typing VA several times before responding to see if I was missing something and I was simply being directed to the Google search results for "VA". When I typed in www.va I got the result you did and I cannot explain it.

When I typed in www.va

nothing happens. No redirection, no conspiracy.

.VA IS the extension. "www.va" is a domain which forwards to vatican.va.

.va is a ccTld just like .us or .cc

So, if I type in www.us, I get the .US registry.

Nothing redirected when I went to va, just google.

Though, after I went to www.va, I found the site you referred to.

I went back to typing just us in the url block, and it redirected me to the referred site.

Yeah, I thought about this, but I'm not able to check the whois of "www" with the extension .va
