This is less a [[World Shapes]], and more a series of world pieces. Landmasses, with or without internal seas, [[Floating Continent|float suspended in an atmosphere]]. They can range in size to tiny "islands" to huge continents with vast civilizations.

 

Compare [[Shattered World]], for broken worlds <small>[[Recycled in Space|IN SPACE!]]</small> and [[Floating Continent]], which usually exists in a more normal world with people also living on the surface below. See also [[The Sky Is an Ocean]], which is almost always used in worlds like these. Also, [[Ocean Punk]], for an actual ocean, can sometimes be a [[After the End|Post-Apocalyptic Earth]].
