The small Pacific island Tokelau is still the most populated country-level domain in the world, outnumbering the 20.8 million domains that use China’s .cn. From a report: UK registry for .uk domains has published its latest topsy-turvy map of the world, with land mass weighted according to the number of registered country-level domains. As it was two years ago, Tokelau remains the world’s ‘largest’ country, thanks to its free registration policy; the number of .tk domains reaching nine million in 2012 and from there tripling to 31 million by 2016. Today, the number of .tk domains stands at 21.2 million, but it still remains the largest, just ahead of China. The number of domains with China’s .cn has increased over the past two years from 17 million to 20.8 million, making it the second most widely used country-level domain in the world.
