Bailiwick? 'Domain' is *way* overloaded. 

NOUN: 1. A person's specific area of interest, skill, or authority. See
synonyms at field. 2. The office or district of a bailiff.  

ETYMOLOGY: Middle English bailliwik : baillif, bailiff; see bailiff + wik, town
(from Old English wc, from Latin vcus; see vicinity).
