Segovia is a plane where everything exists in miniature at about a 1:100 scale.[2][3][4]
Description
The largest creature on Segovia, a Segovian Leviathan, is about the size of a Dominarian elephant. When planeswalkers visit this plane they are automatically shrunk down to scale. The people of Segovia watch sports such as chariot races in arenas called Hippodromes.[3] It was once visited by Nicol Bolas who noted its vastly aquatic nature.[5][6]
During New Phyrexia's Invasion of the Multiverse, Segovia was invaded by at least two Phyrexian centurions.[7]

Trivia
- Segovian Leviathan was in Legends. Everything about the name and art (see the wee whales) implies it’s a giant creature, but it’s only a 3/3. Players would joke about this, so the creative team came up with an answer. There was a world Segovia (based off the name) where everything is much smaller. That’s why this giant creature was 3/3.[8]
- The plane shares the same name as the Spanish city of Segovia.
