Well I suppose one obvious difference is that all those nationalities have
the same native language. Lots of sniggering remarks are made about actors
who make it big in Hollywood but retain an accent from a non-English
speaking country, such as Austria.
Conversely, I know some German, Swiss, Italians get irritated by actors in
Hollywood films attempting to mimic non-English accents.
