You know a .com? Well that, but now it says .dom. You just think it's weird because you've heard .com a lot which makes it sound normal, but on a technical level, they're similar.

There used to be only a few extentions, but now you can have almost anything you want (e.g. if you have enough money, you can do example.ferdinand).
Internal servers are even easier, it doesn't have to be an existing extention, just set up your internal server to understand that example.dom is as much a domain as example.com, or as the commonly used example.test in a development setting.
