A collection of Active Directory Domains that begins at a single root domain.
A parent-child trust relationship is formed when a domain is added under another domain in a tree.
All Domains in a tree share a standard global catalogue.
Naming Convention
When a child is added to a parent, it will have its domain name pre-pended to the parent domain name.
