Edit: I've tried a few country codes, and http://ca/ http://ca/ goes to ca.com, and http://de/ http://de/ goes to de.com, but http://se/ http://se/ goes to https://www.schneider-electric.com/ww/en/ https://www.schneider-electric.com/ww/en/ so it's not that country codes default to the registrar. Weird...
