Creeperian architecture has been shaped by various influences throughout its history. Proto-Creeperian architecture was effectively replaced by Romanyan architecture with the Christianization of the country in the 500s and most pagan influences on architecture were erased. The Deltinian occupation of Creeperopolis from 745 to 1231 brought Islamic influences, such as the stucco, to the Romanyan architectural styles. Although the Deltinians were overthrown and defeated by the mid-1300s, many Islamic architectural styles were retained.

During the 1800s, proto-Creeperian architecture experienced a revival in part due to Adolfo III's campaign to encourage a renaissance of Creeperopolis' ancient traditions, including architecture. Pagan Creeperian architecture was reappropriated to fit modern Catholic styles. This era also saw the construction of various new churches and cathedrals across the country to imitate the large construction projects of the Creeperian Golden Age of the late-1300s. Following the end of the Creeperian Civil War, Romero II sought to lead a similar renaissance to help rebuild the country's ruined cities.
