Jun 5, 2016 at 1:25 comment added Michael Richardson I do agree with this. Even without that, I would consider the homeland of an author to be a default setting if there isn't any other things to set it elsewhere.
Jun 4, 2016 at 13:21 comment added Hypnosifl While the visual inspiration may be New York, the review of the novel I linked to (a novel that was based on an early script draft) indicates that Metropolis was supposed to have been built around the house of an old Medieval occultist, reflecting Lang's intention that one of the themes should be "a battle between modern science and occultism", so it couldn't really be in America in an in-universe sense.
