    Several cities within the story have been based on known cities and countries. The entire Alabasta arc had elements based on ancient Egypt and Arab architecture and clothing. Water 7 is based on the city of Venice, and Logue Town on the city of Florence. The Florian Triangle is based on The Bermuda Triangle, an area where many ships have disappeared mysteriously. Overall the Thriller Bark arc makes many references to the "horror" genre, including The Invisible Man (Absalom), Vampires (Hildon), Ghosts (Perona), Mad scientist (Dr.Hogback), Zombies, living skeletons (Brook) and devils (Gecko Moria).

    The Shandian Tribe were based on Native American Indians. The war between them and the Skypieans is similar to the situation where Europeans began to take land away from the American Indians, leading to bloodshed and war. The city of Shandora is equally comparable to the claimed "cities of gold" which many Europeans were given the impression of about America. The Giants of Elbaf are based on the Vikings. Eiichiro Oda has been a fan of Viking culture since his childhood. Sodom and Gomorrah: the two King Bulls belonging to the Franky Family, which are named after Biblical cities noted for being corrupt.
