Is your goal to separate administration of these 2 domains or do you need different domain policies for the 2 locations?

We will have 2 domains that are in 2 separate physical network zones. Both will have Internet connections. We want only 1 DNS root name. My inclination is to have an empty root domain that has our published Internet DNS name. Then, the 2 domains would have subsequent domains based off this root DNS name. Does this sound feasible? I understand we cannot have 2 forests with the same root DNS name. Is that accurate? Thanks for any input along these lines. I will answer any questions if you want more information.
