Mesagoza looks like a combination of several Spanish cities and {{wp|Lisbon}}. Geographically, it is based on {{wp|Toledo, Spain|Toledo}} or {{wp|Madrid}}, two major cities in the center of Spain. The English name also references the city of {{wp|Zaragoza}}. It draws heavy inspiration from {{wp|Barcelona}}, notably with the similarities between [[Naranja Academy]]{{sup/9|S}}/[[Uva Academy]]{{sup/9|V}} and the {{wp|Sagrada Família}}, as well as several parts of the city being based on {{wp|Park Güell}} and its {{wp|Trencadís}} mosaics. The bridges that lead to the city resemble the {{wp|Puente de Alcántara}}, over the {{wp|Tagus}} river. The central plaza, architecture, pavement and streets around it seem to be inspired by Madrid, Lisbon, as well as the old towns of Toledo and Zaragoza.
