 * In Rutherland, it is called the "Rutherland Revolution". The Rutherlandian colonies rebelled against unfair and unjust Ardonian rule, when the Ardonian prime minister overtaxed the Rutherlandians without giving them any say in the matter.
 * The Ardona-Rutherland animosity also has similarities to England's relations with Wales in the 12th century.
 * The Drivosan fairytale "Harper and Gryphon" is loosely based on the German fairytale "Hansel and Gretel", while the tale "Young Bluecoat" is based on "Little Red Riding Hood".
