Default Realm??

Hey all,
Can anyone tell me what the initial realm/area is when you enter the game for the first time? I must admit, I don't really under stand the realm concept and then on top of that, there are 'areas' in the realms. I was fooling around and changed the realm and I don't know which one I came from in the first place.... I really have no reason to change realms, I was just trying to see how they worked and now I'd just like to get back to the place I was to start. How does one get in to the realms that are full?? Don't they pretty much stay full? And what's the difference between one area and the next in a given realm?
Thanks for any help,

...what [is] the initial realm/area when you enter the game for the first time?
I think when you make a character you go into Ambrose, because it's the first alphabetically.

"...what's the difference between one area and the next in a given realm?"
If there are too many players from a realm in one zone (ex: the commons) it will create a new instance of that zone for new players entering it so it does not become too crowded. This is why only some zones have multiple areas, but others don't. Usually, players fill up the first area the quickest so the areas with higher numbers have the least people.

"I don't really under stand the realm concept and...'areas' in the realms."
A new realm is another set of areas, but for all zones.

"How does one get in to the realms that are full?"
You would teleport to a friend that is in a full zone.

Short and simple: Realms and zones are groups of people in that area. If there was only only realm/zone, you wouldn't be able to see anywhere! only other wizards, so it would be easy to get confused and lost
