Map

Domain names are read from right to left. Different sub-domains under a domain name are generally used to point to different servers, however, this is not always the case. For example, the wikipedia community might want a Spanish version of the site to be on a server in Mexico. So, es.wikipedia.org might point to 67.167.39.4, while en.wikipedia.org and database.en.wikipedia.org can both point to 24.73.285.3, just different pages.
