The initial 11 NA servers are named for 11 of the 12
Empyrean Lords] (the twelth, Nezekan, moved to Oceanic. I guess he was trying to be Just). The initial 12 EU servers are named for Generals and other important NPCs that you encounter as you progress through the zones. Some of the newer servers that are being added post-launch are named for lords of the
Balaur.

† The time zones are just suggestions to help guide folks to a server more likely to have lots of players at their peak play time. It also controls the timezone used when displaying real-world time in-game. All NA servers are located in California. I am not sure where the EU servers are physically located. |
Many of the earlier zones are instanced in up to 10 "channels", depending on load. You can change channels by going to Menu-> Support -> Change Channel. Each "channel" is an exact copy of the others, and you can see friends and group members that are on the same server as you, but are in a different "channel".
There is a max number of players that are allowed onto each server at any moment, and if you login and your server is full, you will be placed into a wait queue. It will tell you how many players are currently waiting, and an estimate of how long your wait should be.
Also, there is automatic server balancing. If too many more Asmodians have been created than Elyos then the server will stop accepting new Asmodian creation for an account creating it's first character on that server. If you already have a character on that server you are not restricting from creating alts.
