I'm sorry, but these aren't times you'd just go silent without a word. There are people who'd worry about you! I don't know of any country that would disallow phone communication. Travel-bans yes, but phone-calls...no!
It would leave one to wonder if this was his excuse to breakup with you? It's been a whole month, and not one word. Let's hope he's fine in any case. I hope you will hear from him soon! It's cruel to leave you wondering and worried. It is possible he got sick too; so you should contact his other contacts to see if anyone knows anything.

 I am puzzled why, in this day and age, you would not be in contact via other means of communication. Who in a relationship communicates by email, let alone ONLY email? Why would you not text or phone him?
My gut feeling would be your boyfriend went to be with someone else (possibly a wife you know nothing about?), hence the lack of contact and only communicating by email.
As yourself seriously if this doesn't all sound rather suspicious.

Have you no other way of contacting him? I find it strange you only communicate by email. Is he really your boyfriend? If so I would read into his silence that your relationship is in the past. Not impossible something has happened to him but far more likely he doesn't have the manners to keep in contact.

Is your Bf deployed in the US Military, or is he a civilian traveler? Do you have his Dads address or phone number? Your Bfs wireless phone number or his hotel address? If he is a civilian, and you fear that he may be a victim of covid 19 or of foul play, contact the US Embassy in that nation, to where he traveled! Are you completely certain, that he intends to return to the USA and/or to you? OP, I pray that he is safe and well, and may GOD return him, to you, in like manner! Blessings!

It seems very strange that he would leave and you only agree to email. Does he have other family who might be looking after him if hes sick? Could you contact them? If your relationship wasnt serious then I think you should probably just consider that it's over after so much time with no contact.

 I will second Kenny's questions.
If you know his address, send him a snailmail letter.
If you know his phone number call him!
Also what country is he in?

 Has he got a mobile phone that you could text or call?.
Do you know any of his friends or family that you could also call or text to see if they have heard from him?.
Did he give you an address of where he was staying when he went out of the country?.

If you were in any kind of meaningful relationship he would have made an effort to keep in touch with you.
I think you deserve better than this.
