There are 22 different regional markets, and several of them have multiple cities.
- When a new release is rolled out, or a hotfix, the worlds are updated sequentially. The US region is near the end of the sequence, so if things are going slowly we'll be quite a bit later than if things are going quickly
- Some features, contests in particular judging from FoE, are included in the released code, but they're hidden behind a timer
- Other activities, such as sweeping inactive cities, are essentially server-side activities, but they also occur in sequence so their timing varies as well
