Can a ccTLD both claim to represent a geographical region such as Columbia and operate as a two character TLD and promote itself as a global entity according to ICANN? Wouldn't that be a conflict within the space of gTLDs and ccTLD separation? Though I am well aware that the whole domain system is generic and ccTLD or TLD are both simply gTLDs and technically ICANN doesn't have to create another name space layer and can issue gTLDs within the same name space layer but my confusion currently is on the ethics of operation of a ccTLD that whether it should state its the .co ccTLD of Columbia (the nation) or is it a TLD called .co in competition to .com?
Best
Fouad
