You might want to check out StarPeace, http://www.starpeace.net
produced by Monte Cristo Games.  It is in commercial release nearly
worldwide, except for North America.  The game is something of an
online Sim City where every player starts as a tycoon with $100
million to invest.  The developers have had a lot of trouble providing
a stable playing environment, but the players with the patience to
deal with its faults have enjoyed it.

p.s. Just checking in, since this is my second post to the list.  I'm
participating in the list as a player who likes to think about game
design.  I have no affiliations with any muds, commercial or
otherwise.
