In a 2011 interview conducted by the Russian magazine GameLand, Yuji Naka clarified that Christmas Island was based on the actual island, which was the site of nuclear weapons testing by the United States and the United Kingdom during the Cold War, which is why Sonic Team chose to populate it with robots and strange animals.[3]
