Intrastate

/ˌɪn.trəˈsteɪt/adjective
ELI5 mode

Intrastate describes something that occurs entirely within the boundaries of a single state, rather than crossing state lines. This term is particularly important in legal and regulatory contexts, such as commerce or transportation, where it helps differentiate local matters from those under federal jurisdiction, preventing confusion in an increasingly interconnected world.
