You mind speaking a bit of Koopish for me?
 
Capital: Lisbon
Major towns/cities: Chippenham, Shepburn Heights, Monstro Town, Langford. (All made by me except Montsro Town)

Physical Features: Mountains in the west

So... the Koopa Kingdom is Portugal with chunks of England and British Columbia thrown in for good measure?
 
Seems like a pretty big coincidence that of all the names that could possibly be made up, you manage to name not one but four real-life Southern English localities (Chippenham, Falmouth, Leyton and Langford (the last one's also a BC city, but I'm guessing that part is by chance)). And Shepburn Heights smacks of GTA's "Hepburn Heights".

There's no shame in getting names from real life or other series (my name sources include Greek and Incan mythology, names picked out from the back of a CD, The Lion King II, my friend's ex and other people I've met IRL, Harry Potter, American history, Pokemon, actors, singers, airplanes, confectioneries, Jurassic Park, Latin, Russian and probably other things I can't remember - or even borrowed from subconsciously) but best be honest about it.
 
Shepburn Heights, I admit was inspired by Hepburn Heights. Most of the other names was out of my head. Plus this was written many years ago so can't really remember the whole details how I thought of most of the stuff in here.
