Geographically, it is based on {{wp|Toledo, Spain|Toledo}} or {{wp|Madrid}}, two major cities in the central Spain. The name Mesagoza also references the city of {{wp|Zaragoza}}. It draws also 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}} (Toledo), over the {{wp|Tagus}} river. The central plaza, architecture, pavement and streets around it seem to be inspired by Plaza Mayor (Madrid), Plaza do Comercio (Lisbon), as well as the old towns of Toledo and Zaragoza. | |||
