The Enchanted Forest is divided into kingdoms, much as the Land Without Magic is currently divided into countries. Known kingdoms of the Enchanted Forest are:

  • Aurora and Prince Phillip's Kingdom (previously ruled by King Stefan and Queen Briar Rose)
  • Prince Charming and Snow White's kingdom (formerly ruled by King George)
  • Evil Queen's kingdom (previously ruled by King Leopold and Queen Eva)

Additionally, there are some other lands:

  • Avonlea (a location close to Maurice's castle)
  • The Dark Castle and its surrounding mountains (home to Rumplestiltskin)
  • The Frontlands (Ruled by duke. A region or kingdom where Rumplestiltskin, Milah and Baelfire lived, or lived close to.)
  • The Forbidden Fortress and the surrounding Forbidden Mountains (home to Maleficent)

Notes:

  • Bolded Names are canon location names. Such names have been given in-show by characters themselves.
  • The name that appears first within a couple denotes who inherited the kingdom
  • "Formerly ruled by" denotes that the previous ruler was either overthrown or removed from power by force. "Previously ruled by" denotes that the current ruler inherited the kingdom.
