That's on the timeline, thanks to Randy Farmer. :)

I don't know of any. I know that the Realm claimed to have capacity for that
many, but I don't know if they actually hit that amount. On the major
US-based games, the limiting factor is usually not the technology but the
amount of map/game data available. That plus the advantages for customer
reach that come with co-location lead to the creation of cloned worlds. (The
term "shards" from UO seems to have entered the common industry vocabulary
now, which is amusing, since it's so fiction-specific).
