Boundary / boundary
These names differ only by letter case, so they share this page. Each one is a separate term with its own identifier.
gs:Boundary Class
The extent of a governed area over a period of time. A separate citable entity rather than a field, because boundaries change and the change matters: a 2022 contest was fought on the 2022 boundary, and a record attributed to an area is anchored to the boundary in force at the time. Attaching one current geometry to a jurisdiction silently rewrites history.
