* ''Fanfic/{{Austraeoh}}'' uses an interesting variant. The world is a flat plane with earth-like conditions on top and a chaotic netherworld on the bottom, and is a strip much longer in the east-west direction than north-south. Much like solar radiation on Earth, magical energies also congregate around the north and south edges of the world, meaning that when Rainbow Dash has to go to the other side, she has to take the long way around eastward. It's eventually revealed that it is actually only a fragment of an enormous dodecagon-shaped ringworld that was broken apart eons ago.

* ''VideoGame/WorldOfWarcraft'': The world of Outland is the largest fragment of a shattered world, and players in the game can fall off the edge and die (dying in such a way causes you to be resurrected at the nearest graveyard from the point you fell off)

* The titular ''Literature/{{Discworld}}'' is this, rested upon the backs of four elephants standing atop a great sea turtle. It features the classic "endless waterfalls over the edge" -- when asked about where the water came from, Pterry cryptically replied "[[HandWave Arrangements are made]]".



%%* "The Edge of the World", by Creator/ShelSilverstein. The illustration on the cover of the book ''Where the Sidewalk Ends'' uses the illustration from the poem "The Edge of the World", [[CoversAlwaysLie leading some to mistakenly assume that the illustration is for the specific poem "Where the Sidewalk Ends"]] (which is actually about the grassy strip between the sidewalk and the street).%%That's nice. Describe the trope.
