    .co.uk isn't the UK's top level domain. . uk is the top level part similar to German's .de domain. In the UK you then have a second level domain, e.g.

    .co.uk = commercial
    .gov.uk = government
    .ac.uk = academic

    And there's more than that. I'm assuming whoever manages the German .de domain has just have decided to use just the top level domain (.de) for now. I could be wrong though - couldn't find anything on a German 2nd level domain.
