Although most locations in the world of ''Dragon Quest III'' mimic real world locations, the continent of Aliahan does not.  This seems to support the supposition that the Hero hails from a distant and mysterious place rather than one based on a real world location.  It could also be intended to be a reference to Atlantis, a lost continent mentioned by Plato.
