Prof. Draco wrote: They way it's talked about, I though Arendale was seperate to the EF? Same world but different lands. Same with Agrabah. Like different countries on the same continent, though Arendale is known to be sepearted by an ocean. Is it really apprpriate to say that it's all the EF, when Kristoff talks about it as if it were a different land i.e. Misthaven?

Would it ot be more appropriate to give it a cover-all name, like The Land of Magic or World of Fables? Because it's clearly not all the Enchanted Forest, and it's kind of annoying seeing it reffered as such and nothing else.

I agree. I am on a fan board where I have presented evidence again and again to show that at the very least, Arendelle and EF/Mist Haven are seperate parts of the same world, and yet no one else can see it. I am glad that other people here can.

Until  season 4 eposide 6, the water that the characters' cross to travel between them has not been described as a portal, so right now it is canon that is not. Therefore the two are part of the same world.

ABC has often described the world where Regina etc comes from as Fairytale Land. ABC sometimes gets things wrong about their shows but there could be something in this. Though strictly speaking, some of the characters that hail from there are not fairytale characters. Robin Hood is a legend, Hook is from a children's novel, Bo Peep is a nursery rhyme character, Baelfire is made up, Anna and Elsa are Disney, the Snow Queen is from a story made up by a specific author (Hans Christian Anderson) etc, so FTL doesn't seem appropriate. The Land of Happy Endings would make sense, though and it would be a factor in Regina's downward spiral to evilness.

To me, Enchanted Forest means trees. Many of the other kingdoms do not have trees. There is also Sherwood Forest, mentioned by Robin Hood.

I also would like to see a map, but I don't think we are going to get one. The writers need to add more kingdoms to it as someone else said.

However, this article and others need to say that the Enchanted Forest could be the name of the whole world, or just part of it.
