Agreed.
'National Park' is very specific. We have national parks and we have
state, county, regional ... parks.
National:
*: *belonging to or maintained by the federal government

I think the entire "national_park" tag is unfortunate, as it wraps
up a
lot of concepts that vary by country, and makes people understand

when they don't. In the US, it should mean "preserve the land while
allowing access and enjoyment", there is a notion that the place is
relatively distinguished, and it doesn't really have a connotation of
size.
I agree, the national_park tag is rather unfortunate, some other tag
should be used to connote state or national parks in an easily
distinguishable fashion while not making it excessively difficult to
find parks in general. With the existing national park tag, I'd use it
for national (US and indian tribal), but not state parks.
