No world has only one story, so LWC is likely no different. There's no precedent and no proof. They have an army, thus they are likley fighting neighbors and such. The smallest world we've actively seen is Wonderland and they have had officially two kingdoms at a point and they don't draft due to the fact that there's no real need.

Kansas likley has more than one story, like 1920s London, and even Victorian London (which has Alice and even Mr. Darcy from Pride and Prejudice).

If anyone can prove an active world that only has one story, feel free to try. There's no proof because the more we explore, the more we can find. Neverland, Underworld, Wonderland, and Oz are all world that only contain one story Neverlad had ties to Rumplestilskin, Pied Piper. Underworld has like every story character present, Wonderland had Alice, Beowulf, Jafar running around, Cora being the EQ's mother. Oz is the only world we haven't seen enough of, but Ozian lore is very, very vast unto itself. Just because a character visits a word doesn't make that world home to its story. Underworld has all dead charaters but their story has already been payed in Storybrooke and FTL, you can't say the Underworld conains the story Hansel and Gretel just because the Blind Witch owns a diner there, her story is from FTl, same with Pan, his story is from Neverland and he just happens to be dead owning a shop in the Underworld. Jafar is from Agrabah (which reminds me Agrabah is another world with only one story) and Rumple, Cora, and Pied Piper are from FTL, those are the places in which their story from the source material was told. I don't recall Beowulf being on the show, could you tell me which episode so I may rewach. But with your logic LWC has ties to Rumple and the Evil Queen so even then we have no reason to believe it has ties to any other stories than that. No, Jafar's story happens in Wonderland. His story is getting the genie and becoming a genie and he did that in Wonderland. And Agrabah is a region in FTL, not a separate world. PEter Pan was the Pied Piper that took the Lost boys to his world. That's a mix of two stories and Neverland. My explanation for the Underworld is a bit of a stretch, but you can't say that there are many worlds with solely one story being told. Oz, LWC, Kansas, 1920s England - we just don't know much about. Those are the only three worlds that are of one story (Oz has a series of books). So, likely the more we learn about worlds like Kansas, the likeliness we'll see the other stories told.

It's not about where the character originated but where the story takes place (which is usually two worlds). And because we don't know much about them we cannot assume that thy are any bigger or that there is any more to them than what we have seen. Yall can theorize that there is more to them but that is all it would be, a theory. I am just tired of people saying that there will be a LWC arc as if it is fact when it is possible that we have seen everything there is to see in that world. Your missing the point that a world, by definition, contains a world of people, places, and things. What your argueing is that the world is more like an island with like 10 people on it. It doesn't make sense, and it has no precendent, because all the worlds we have seen have lots of random people, besides the named characters. You should assume the world is big until proven otherwise, not the other way around. Thats not what I'm arguing at all, my point is we can't assume anything because we don't know enough to do so. I never said I know for a fact it is super small, just that the possibility that it might be cannot be ruled out. We can't assume that it is big or that it is small, all we can do is create theories about the size of the world. LWC could me the smallest world out there for all we know.
