.er is the country code top-level domain (ccTLD) for Eritrea.
Due to the common use of the -er suffix in the English language, the .er ccTLD has potential for use in the creation of domain hacks if it is decided to allow unrestricted second level domain registrations. Currently, such registrations are not allowed. This is similar to the unconventional usage of .tv (for television), .to (for the English word "to"), and many others.
