Root Name Server
The internet’s master directory operates through just 13 root server identifiers worldwide

Why are there only 13 root name server identifiers despite the internet's vast size?
Because each identifier corresponds to multiple physical servers worldwide using anycast routing to ensure resilience and efficiency.
Because the internet only supports 13 top-level domains.
Because having more than 13 root servers would slow down DNS resolution.
