A detailed analysis about the exact location of the united states of auradon
I am deeply annoyed and intrigued by the mystery that is the exact location of auradon so i spent a few days reshearching
Tumblr media
this zoom out scene suggests that auradon is on Earth and from the photo they used it seems like the museum and therefore auradon itself is in South East  Africa. I think this is the photo they used

Plants are my specialty so i’m gonna aproach this from a botanist’s standpoint assuming that magick doesn’t affect the greenery.
In did I mention, the date / if only and the forest scenes in d3 we see some of the flora of the area which includes species of oaks, firs, ferns, rubus,  clematis and pteridium plants, im pretty sure the flowers by the lake are Ipomea purpurea and generally tall productive deciduous trees.
that is very much temperate climate flora
Temperate climate is rare in Africa with exceptions in high altitudes BUT Auradon has many islands incuding The Isle of the Lost so Africa is eliminated and we can assume the mirror is just a sassy bitch and showed whatever angle of Earth it wanted.
So, we’re left with the northeast americas, europe, southeast australia, the korean peninsula and the eastern part of china.

In the descendants wiki it says that Olympus is north of the Great wall...i know everything is scrambled up in that universe buuuuut both the topography of the area around the actual mount. olympus and a specific lake near the actual Great wall are very similar to the official map (bodies of water, peninsulas with narrow connections to the main land, a few islands, high altitude mountains further up etc.)
In conclusion from now on I headcanon the United States of Auradon are either in greece or in china...
