national territory
The territory of a state, including its land areas, inland waters, coastal waters, and the airspace above them. Within this area, the state exercises its sovereign authority.
Das Überfliegen des Staatsgebiets ohne Genehmigung ist eine Verletzung der nationalen Souveränität.
Flying over the national territory without permission is a violation of national sovereignty.
This word consists of 'der Staat' (state) and 'das Gebiet' (area/territory). The 's' in the middle is a linking s that connects the two words. So it literally means the 'territory of a state.'
Die Grenzen des Staatsgebiets sind international anerkannt.
The borders of the national territory are internationally recognized.
'Staatsgebiet' (national territory) is a formal term used mainly in politics, law, and the news. It is rather rare in normal everyday conversation.
Die neue Verordnung gilt auf dem gesamten Staatsgebiet.
The new regulation applies throughout the entire national territory.
Common verbs used in connection with 'Staatsgebiet' (national territory) are 'betreten' (to enter), 'verlassen' (to leave), and 'verletzen' (to violate). A very typical fixed expression is 'Verletzung des Staatsgebiets' (violation of national territory).
Das Schiff hat unerlaubt das Staatsgebiet verlassen.

domestic country / home country
Inland refers to one’s own country in contrast to Ausland. Staatsgebiet, by contrast, means precisely the territory of a state and sounds more factual and precise. Use „Inland“ when the distinction from Ausland is important, and „Staatsgebiet“ when the area itself is the focus.
Die Regel gilt auf dem gesamten Staatsgebiet, einschließlich der Inseln.
The rule applies throughout the national territory, including the islands.
Die neue Regel gilt nur im Inland und nicht bei Lieferungen ins Ausland.
