Welcome back!
1) Balmung is closed to transfer and character creation indefinitely. Many NA folk have gone to Mateus, and many EU folk have gone to Omega. Those are your two largest communities, though there are definitely smaller RP scenes on other servers. The FC/LS halls here might give you a good idea.
2) Poke around the FC Hall here, see if anything catches your eye. You can also check out the event calendar once you choose a server to meet new people. The party finder on whatever server you choose will likely have advertisement as well.
3) Most FCs have some sort of theme, even if it's as broad as "adventuring". Some are more specific.There's a little of everything.
4) We've got a pretty good lore collection here on the RPC, from people pulling info from multiple locations. There's also the lore forums on the official forums, Encyclopedia Eorzea, and a host of others. (I know I've left some out, those were just the ones that came to mind.)
