''Note: The terms "land" and "world" have been used interchangeably on-screen and on the OUAT Wiki. The term "realm" is used on the OUAT Wiki as a region of FTL. This theory classes the collective term as "realm" (as it appears to be the only term used consistently to describe these locations) with "lands" and "worlds" as distinct varieties.''

Lands are the traditional realms: FTL, LWM, Wonderland, etc. They can be travelled to with the use of portals. Lands are generally culturally and ethnically diverse, similar to LWM. Additionally, lands can be distinguished from worlds by looking at their names: Fairy Tale Land, Land Without Magic, Wonderland, Victorian/1920s England, etc.

Worlds are similar in the fact that they are large expansive realms. However, worlds are distinct in the fact that they appear to exist on a different plane to the regular lands and cannot be travelled to by means of a conventional portal, more complex methods are required. Worlds also appear to each have a distinctive trait: the Netherworld is the realm "between life and death" and the Underworld is the realm of the dead.

'''I propose that the terminology on the OUAT Wiki be updated to reflect this distinct difference between "lands" and "worlds", with "realms" being used as the collective term. What are your thoughts?'''
