The 10000 year world would bother me.
Not because of the memory requirements, though they would be huge, but because technology wouldn't advance.
10000 years of the same swords and shields sort of tech is goofy.

If it's an actual area, and not a picture of the world map, I'm pretty sure you have to hit the <print> and paste the image into something like MSPaint.  I don't think there's any sort of in-game screen shot utility, out side of full maps.

Another possibility is alt + Print screen, that copies just the active window.
