Is there

There is a deictic word. It's part of a set of deictic words: here, there, where, hither, thither, whither, hence, thence, whence, etc. Fillmore explains it in the Deixis Lectures.

KeepInventory is disabled. I had very important and rare items in my inventory at the time, and I'd really like to cheat and get them back. Is there a way to see my inventory or change gamerules from outside the world? Thus both there are more than one species and there is more than one species are equally correct (though have subtly different meanings), but the latter sounds better since it is more what we're used to hearing. The word there means something like at that place when it is used with stative verbs. If you want to say something like at that place and in that place, you can just say in there.
