I. Generic Top-Level Domain and the New Gtld

gTLD (generic Top-Level Domain, “gTLD”) is one of the top-level domains (TLD) managed by the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN). Under the current gTLD system, there are only 22 gTLDs available (not including the TLDs representing 200+ countries and territories, such as the .cn).
