While they could contrive a story to explain it, the simple explanation is that Edmund's country is in the same general vicinity as the rest of the EF. Maybe it's up closer to Arendelle (don't get mad at me for bringing it up. like it or not, it is part of the FTL universe on Once), and Arendelle is clearly a different time period from the more rustic Mysthaven/EF setting. Just as I'm sure Agrabah will be just a bit different, and yet it is also a part of the FTL setting.

Point being, just because it represents a different era/setting does not mean that it can't still be part of the FTL world. And to an extent that mirrors the real world as well. Just like the native americans were very much more primative (or natural depending on how you look at it) than Europe in the 1700's, or how the USA is much more advanced than much of Africa today.
