'''.jp''' is one of the first [[ccTLDs]] to be used on the Internet's [[Domain Name System]].

'''.tc''' is one of the first [[ccTLDs]] to be used on the Internet's [[Domain Name System]].

At the establishment of the .jp domain the domain was administered by the [[Japan Network Information Center|JPNIC]], as part of their role as an overseeing technical body for the Internet in Japan.  However, due to the growing importance and size of the .jp registry, it was decided at the 11th General Meeting of JPNIC in December 2000 to create a new corporation that would manage the .jp domain. Thus, the Japan Registry Service was created, and on June 30, 2003, officially assumed the duties of the .jp [[Domain name registry|registry]].<ref>http://jprs.co.jp/en/</ref>

Since T.C. also stands for Türkiye Cumhuriyeti (Republic of Turkey), the domain is used by some Turkish sites as well.<ref>http://www.iana.org/root-whois/tc.htm</ref>
