The original top level domains were only .com, .net, .org, and .gov. Your fancy country top level domains were never part of the original internet plan.

Is that origin.al or not?

Whoops, my bad, I must have made a typo somewhere...

One accidental dot, which happens to be near the letter N on the keyboard, can be the difference between a word and a link.
