In addition to the issue of [cost](#answer-290757), there is also the issue of control of the top-level domain. While political events in Congo perhaps do not dominate world news, [events over the past few decades](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Democratic_Republic_of_the_Congo#Mobutu_dictatorship_and_Zaire_(1965%E2%80%931997)) don't at a glance inspire confidence in the long-term political stability of the country. (I do sincerely hope that I am wrong in this assessment, for the people of the country.) A whole Mastodon instance just recently disappeared as [the national registry revoked their domain registration](https://cyberplace.social/@GossiTheDog/111918422459442548). Not that any TLD is entirely immune to this (well, .onion just *might* qualify, but it doesn't exactly lend itself to memorable FQDNs), but it's still an issue that should be considered.
