I used to work for the Surveyor General of WA and I remember helping him with the research on Title Insurance but couldn't remember the details. (It was quite a few years ago!) The Titles Office is in the same umbrella dept as the Surveyor General's Office, although nothing is known by the same names anymore! The link you provided was a much simpler breakdown than anything I read way back then!! Where was Wikipedia when I needed it!! LOLWe do have title insurance, but I don't believe it covers eminent domain. It's intended to protect your right to your property in the event that there's a challenge regarding who owns the title.
With the appropriate skepticism regarding the veracity of Wikipedia, here's an interesting description of title insurance and why it exists in the U.S.: Title insurance - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
