no, you misunderstand. the english base their entire identity on laying an incredibly complex regional/class-based landscape of landmines of pronunciation to be able to detect the foreigner, so they can then vote for farage.
The US has a fucking ton of regional dialects and accents probably owing to how huge it is. Like you have 4 or 5 just in the NYC area. Then you got the Appalacians you got the bayou and the french influence. You got the Tennessee drawl (which funny enough I kinda absorbed by spending so much time online talking to southern comrades). California has a couple but they’re pretty boring, you got the great lakes/dakotas (aka almost canada but not quite).

(sometimes the foreigner is from sheffield)
“Oi guv I’m from the London suburb Bovinshire-upon-Weavelton”
“Oi guv I’m from the London suburb Weavelton-upon-Bovinshire”
“Oi I could tell from yer totally distinct accent”
In my experience there are actually only about 10 UK accents, the rest are just pretending.
If you want actual accent madness its Norway. Somehow evry town with 5 people or more has a unique accent.
