.vc

.vc is the Internet country code top-level domain (ccTLD) for Saint Vincent and the Grenadines and is commonly mistaken for being the ccTLD of the Vatican City State. Registration is open worldwide, and it has been used for a variety of sites not necessarily related to that location; it can also be seen as standing for "Venture Capital", "Ventura County", "Version Control", "Video Conferencing", or other things, like an informal, but common, abbreviation of "você" ("you", in Portuguese). In this way, ".com.vc" could be understood in Portuguese like ".with.you" would be in English.
