Fictional locations

This section is concerned with all the locations from the animated series and the books. The world Alfred Jodocus Kwak and the other characters inhabit is based on the real world. However, not all continents are given a proper name in the story itself, which makes most of the world building a little bit of guesswork.

Europe

This continent is never given a name in the series, but it contains all the countries based on real-life European countries.

Groot Waterland

(lit. "Great Waterland")
For more information, check the main article

This country is based on the Netherlands.[1]

Morena

For more information, check the main article

This location is likely based on Monaco.[1] The city depicted in episode 50 is likely called Monte Carla (city), which is named in the song with the same name.

France

The song Monte Carla clarifies that the language they speak in the city of Monte Carla is Frands[note 1] inferring that there is a France equivalence in this world.


Arlon continent

This is the only continent in the series given a name, and it's likely based on Africa.

Thuisland

Real-life locations

These are non-fictional locations related to Alfred Jodocus Kwak

The Netherlands

De Paltz estate

This is Herman van Veen's and Harlekijn Holland's estate, which houses several theaters and the Herman van Veen Arts Center.

Notes

  1. ↑ 'Frands' is an intentional mispronunciation of the Dutch word 'Frans', which in this case refers to the French language.
