An instance is another occurrence or version of an object. For example one page may have two language instances:
English instance: http://www.britishcouncil.org/japan-education.htm
Japanese instance: http://www.britishcouncil.org/jp/japan-education.htm
Notice that the end portion of the URL is identical japan-education.htm. This is because the page is one object (not two) but has two different language instances.
