I've been wrong more than I've been right in the past but I think that ".to"
(Tongo/Tonga) is allowing its top level name to be used/sold through third party
registrars - Or something like that.  The host machine could be literally
anywhere on the planet where an IP connection can be established.

My mistake.  (I really should learn to properly research things.)  Tongo
or Tonga is correct, though I'm not sure which.  Mapquest doesn't know
about Tongo, but Tonga it says is in the South Pacific.
