.рф

".рф" is the internet domain extension for the Russian Federation that uses Cyrillic characters (the Russian alphabet) instead of the standard Latin letters, making it the first major example of non-Latin domain names on the internet. It matters because it has become the most widely used internationalized domain name globally, with around 900,000 registered websites, allowing Russian speakers and organizations to use domain names in their native language.
