## Trivia

* Mount Olympos was originally going to be placed in the air above New York City like its novel counterpart (see above), but when that didn't work out it was placed in the Appalachians, right outside of Lehigh County.
* The mountain top didn't fit all twelve of the gods' thrones, so only Zeus' throne was built, giving him and the other eleven cabins/temples inside of the mountain base instead.
* After the image of Zeus' throne was taken, the creator of the world decided to put a stone canopy floating above the mountain top, so that Olympos would look like a normal mountain on maps.
