Not necessarily. ".com" is the official suffix for commercial domains, not governments (they use the ".gov" suffix). However, a government could certainly purchase a ".com" domain.

No, only .gov is owned by a government. .com is commercial, meaning it is owned by a company or a small business or a private individual. If you bought a website, it would likely be a .com.

If a web address contains com is it American?

No. Not necessarily.I have 15 ".com" domain names legally registered and I'm a Canadian citizen and resident.Some TLDs (top level domains) have restrictions, but ".com" domain names don't.Example: ".ca" domain names have Canadian residency requirements.But the better known ".com", ".net", ".org", can be registered to anybody on earth.Dot-Com means commercial. Worldwide online.So, "if a website address contains .com" then no, there's no reason to assume that it's American.A "WhoIs" lookup on the domain might help find information about who owns the domain name.

What is wrong with pokemonelite2000com?

If you mean "why isn't the address working", then it could be because you didn't put a dot before the "com". The address should read "pokemonelite2000.com". I just tried that address and it worked fine. If you did put the dot in, it may have just been a temporary problem, because it's working now.
