The books are set in Britain; the hero is British; it just follows logically that the characters were British, but the character's backgrounds were all over the place, and there are characters in the RP that come from different places too. Maybe there were American students at Hogwarts; they just weren't important to the plot
Yes she did have different races, and some French and Romanian ( i think thats where Durmstrang is) charries thrown in there, but she focused on British, and i cant fault her for that, this is her book and her choice to do so, i still love the books, but i mean i kinda felt left out there being american, even tho i am black
but i mean what about Canadian French and Black Irish, or Asian American Native American, and there werent any kind Of Hispanic or Spanish people in the books?
there are tons of people that ethically, not racially, that she left out.
And i am glad that this website didnt limit us to canon characters, i mean i cant fake being British, i mean i used to live there i cant fake that i was born there.
