What is .ge?
A little context on Georgia: the capital is Tbilisi, the main language is Georgian, the currency is the lari (GEL) and the international dialing code is +995.
Next door on the map, you'll find .am for Armenia, .az for Azerbaijan, .ru for Russia and .tr for Türkiye.
IANA lists Caucasus Online LLC as the manager of .ge, with an address in Georgia. The registry's website is http://nic.ge. ccTLD managers set their own policies — who can register, which second-level names exist, pricing to registrars — so those rules differ from country to country.
Under the hood, the root zone points to 4 name servers for .ge, none of them with an IPv6 address. The delegation is DNSSEC-signed, so resolvers can verify that answers for .ge haven't been tampered with on the way. Registration data is published over WHOIS (the WHOIS server is whois.nic.ge).
Georgia also has another country-code domain in the root zone: .გე (Georgian).
