This article is supposed to give an overview about land in Second Life, going from the smallest to the largest scale.
 
== Parcel ==
An area of land owned by a single user or group, which is at least 16m² and at maximum 65,536m², all within one [[#Region|region]]. Parcels are composed of square blocks measuring 4×4 meters, but the blocks do not have to be contiguous. Parcels have both an integer local id and a global [[UUID]]. Parcel settings are modifiable in the [[Video_Tutorial/Land/About_Land_options|About Land]] options.
 
== Region{{anchor|Sim}} ==
A named 256m x 256m (65,536 m²) area hosted by a single [[Sim|simulator process (sim)]]. In common usage, the term "simulator" or "sim" may also refer to a region, but in fact a single sim process can host mulitple regions.
 
There are currently three types of regions: ''Full'', ''Homestead'' and ''Openspace'' (also known as ''Void''). All got the same size, but differ in their avatar-, and primlimits, as well as in their prize. See {{Slkb|5721|Private Region Types}} for official info.
 
=== Full Region ===
There are two full regions per server host CPU.
=== Homestead Region ===
Homestead regions were introduced... text
=== Openspace Region ===
Openspace regions support fewer prims and users{{KB|4235|Information about Openspaces (Void Regions)}}.
== Estate ==
A collection of regions with a particular set of rules, such as banned users, sun position, etc. Estates have integer identifiers.
=== Mainland ===
The “mainland” is estate id 1 and owned by [[User:Governor Linden|Governor Linden]]
=== Private Estate ===
text
== Grid ==
{|
|valign="top"|A collection of sims (e.g. [[#Agni|Agni]] & [[#Aditi|Aditi]]). Linden Lab runs several grids for internal and external testing.
 
Contrary to common believe, the [[Teen Grid]] and ''Main Grid'' are different estates on the same Grid (Agni), rather than different Grids.
 
Linden Lab's grids are named after Hindu gods. Many of the grids supported by the client are either inaccessible to the public or no longer active.
 
=== Agni ===
The primary Second Life grid to which users connect; named after the Vedic god of Fire, mentioned in the four Vedas.
 
Some [[:Category:Images of Agni|images of the Agni grid]] are available in this wiki.
 
{{ClientUpdate|Agni}}
 
=== Aditi ===
The beta test grid available to Residents for testing the Second Life server software before it's deployed to the main grid (Agni); named after the Vedic mother goddess, cosmic creatrix.
