In addition, what are the name of the noble houses of the Enchanted Forest? How the politics work there?

Is it intentional or just lazy worldbuilding?

Actually, I do think it is a really really interesting discussion. Like that, I'd say it is not a question of laziness. More a choice to not make things too complicated. I mean, not like it is really needed to have a name for these kingdoms. But, we could ask a writer. I'd agree but I sort of say it appears to be laziness when there were significantly less kingdoms in seasons 1 and 2. Season 1 had at most 4 and Season 2 had added 1 more. Shows like Galavant has a map (which I'm okay with Once not showing one yet) and names of two of the major kingdoms Valencia and Hortensia and diplomatic relations. Half the time, I'm shocked that David knows of so much when Snow was royalty and foreign relations would probably be a little more relavant to learn.

So far, most of the newer stuff Disney/ Pixar inserts have names and Camelot actually had names for forests and stuff, but EF seems to still be a weirdly small conglomerate of feudal lords.
