MacOS Catalina will not reinstall after wiping the entire internal drive

I cannot install macOS Catalina after I wiped my SDD on my 2020 MacBook Air. After wiping, I tried reinstalling macOS, and the error saying “MacOS cannot be installed” try again after restarting. I tried to reinstall macOS through recovery mode (cmmd-r) and (shift-option-cmmd-r). I have also tried to reinstall macOS after I did “first aid” on my drive.


Can anyone help me with this?
