Because Americans kick ass and when we take over the world in the future, Canada will be smart enough to ally with us? I dunno.

In ME I think North America is a unified country of some sort isn't it?

[Cheesy Blue]

It's called the United North American States (UNAS) and is one unified country under a single flag.

Is it actually ever stated that Shepard is American? Or are people just assuming he is because of his VA? I don't think we are ever told Shepard's nationality, especially since we create our own Shepard. Even if s/he is Earth born, it is never said where s/he grew up on Earth.

Actually, going by VA, Shepard's more likely to be Canadian, but you're right.  Canadian accent aside, Shepard's nationality is left ambiguous.

He could be either one.

While his accent is 'Canadian' Americans that live near some regions of the Canadian border often sound identical to Canadians. I was in the Marines with a guy that used to say "aboot" rather than about, and he was born in Michigan.

And Shep is Canadian or American only if he has the Earthborn origin. If he's a colonist or a spacer his accent can be explained by being born in a place/ship where most of the people were North American. A player could have a spacer Shep with an English father for example, or a Colonist Shep whose parents were from New Zealand.

The only Arabic name in the game and she's the most hated, considering how many times she gets a black eye... OTL
Ah well, at least they didn't give her an accent at least... xD

If you didn't guess already I'm talking about Khalisah al-Jilani...

I noticed there aren't any French, German, Greek, Portuguese, Spaniard and Italian people in the game, maybe Europeans a little xenophobic? No?


Does Zaeed count as Turkish?

Accent's aside anyone in the game could be from anywhere really, Zaeed's got a East London accent, Zaeed isn't really a British name though. And well Anderson is born in London but he has no British accent.

It doesn't surprise me that there are loads of human Americans and Canadians in the game, but that's something I can usually put aside. There are a few from different countries -

-Zaeed, Chakwas, Amanda Kenson, Chairman Burns, Dr Archer (English)
-Ken (Scottish)
-Miranda (Australian)
-Samesh Bhatia (Indian, I think)
-Donovan Hock (Afrikaan)
-Lt Giraud, Dr Michel (French)
-Udina (I have no idea)
-Random Eden Prime person (Irish)
-Possibly Kasumi (Her accent sounds slightly Japanese)

Alenko is an Ukrainian last name, Kaidan is Arabic first name but it's also used in NA as well. Kaidan's Canadian, from Vancouver. Mac Walters confirmed it and tweeted that he's was born there but his parents are most likely of descent, maybe immigrants, hence Kaidan's mixed look and name.

I find the lack of Mexicans in space displeasing.
Bioware should rename the Normandy the " Alamo" and switch Kasumi's bar with a taco stand.

Alenko is not exclusive to Ukraine.

It's just less common in other Slavic nations.

Zaeed could be Turk-British and Anderson is London-born UNAS citizen.

Is everyone Racist even with Humans? I'm an American, I'm proud of it I'm white and good. I love Aliens and the way Mass Effect is. This too is only a Video game. Some of you no offense, some of you are weird period.

Those can lead to some terrifying mood swings.
