Before my mega-post, I'll introduce some of my theories:

1) The Northern Kingdom: I think it may be Camelot, but probably not. I do believe that this is the homeland of Rumple and has the Dark One's castle near its border. I think that the Dark Castle is near/within the Dark Forest which encompasses the foots of the Dark Mountain where the Sorcerer's Apprentice lives. The Dark Castle is definitely Northern as it experiences snowfall.

2) The map in Skin Deep and Charming's map: Both maps I believe only show territory of and near their respective kingdoms. It's highly impractical that both in strategic warfare would look at a continental map.

3) Prince Phillip's kingdom borders Regina's since Phillip says in 2x11 that Maleficent is a sorceress from his kingdom. This is before he saves Aurora, maybe before they married.

4) Prince Phillip's kingdom was Xavier's kingdom: I know it may not make sense, but someone inherited or took Xavier's kingdom since it wasn't Henry. Yes, this might mean Phillip and Regina could be cousins, not weird for this show. Also, only so many kingdom's can border one another.
