Through wizard101 you encounter worlds based on other civilizations. I figured I would list them off.
Hopefully this solves some confusion.

Wizard City-Renaissance Era
Krokotopia-Egypt
Marleybone-Victorian Era
MooShu-Fuedal Japan
Dragonspyre-Mount Vesuvius
Celestia-Atlantis
Grizzleheim-Scandinavia
Zafaria-Africa
Avalon-Medieval Britain, Ireland, France, Germany, Italy
Azteca-Aztec/Maya

Hmm...you forgot Wysteria, which has Spanish Architecture influences and English/Irish Accented inhabitants.
And MooShu is a mix of both China and Japan but you can go either/or and still be right. For Dragonspyre, you stated more of the geography than the actual world design and inhabitants which are the Pompeii insident of Mount Vesuvious, Byzantine Empire/Greek architecture and Russian Accents. Marleybone has some steampunk twists I'd probably add.

Overall everything seems pretty close.

Dragonspyre is mostly based off of really broad architecture, and the eruption of Mount Vesuvius as well as a Pompeii kind of them. As for marleybone, it is England's Victorian era, which is my fault for not putting there

Oh I did forget Wysteria didn't I? Oh well, but thanks for that. And thanks for the other insight as well.

Grizzleheim is Scandinavia I promise you. If you look at the influences of all the anthropomorphic animals such as bears, wolves, and even the raven and Grendel's. also there is some Scandinavian geography as well as architecture (considering part of Scandinavia is covered in a sheet of snow.

I would say Grizzleheim is more Swedish/Norwegian in the Viking times, from the little bit I have done of it on my
