I thought of Amsterdam when seeing the first scenes of the trailer, but knowing names and seeing the full map, I think the chanals might be inspired by Stockholm instead. I also see influence fom Norway (and maybe Iceland), especially from the name Nordhaven. Gammelvik might be Norwegian for Old Bay, and Iverstad might be Swedish for a stad (town) founded by someone named Iver, which could be a Scandinavian male's name. The architecture feels historical, still reminding me of Netherlands, but I guess also Denmark and the other Scandinavian countries had or still have some of those tall buildings.
i think most of us thought it was gonna be based on The Netherlands, Amsterdam in particular because of the buildings, the vibe and the tittle and i thought they meant Noordhaven ("North Harbour" in English) untill i found out it's actually based on Sweden and someone mentioned about a mountain which we don't have in The Netherlands but i do still feel like it's a mix of the scandinavian countries, Finland and The Netherlands countries in 1 world because we also have canals and where i live we also do business
