i think in ii, culture has no effect on what type of object an object is
#wheucto#wheucto speaks#like. taco_ a type of mexican food_ is british. yinyang_ an asian??? chinese??? symbol (idk)_ is italian.#although i guess for them (particularly yinyang)_ you could argue that that's just theit voice actors? but idk#also. ii's universe probably has the same nations as we do. i cant say that w absolute certainty_ but real world places have been mentioned#such as france (french pizza cutter)_ spanish exists implying spain does as well_ and italy#also_ in the few scenes we see his back_ you can see mephone was assembled in new york_ which implies the existence of the USA#also they call taco british once. so britain is probably real#other people w possible nationalies are: suitcase (australian)_ fan (chinese)_ the floor (also australian).#i didnt really bring them up bc they didnt really bring any arguments against culture affecting what an object is#i mean you could also make the argument that taco and yinyang could have heritage (???) of their respective objects' cultural origins#but we dont know that for sure. so#this is like. a pretty unimportant (and maybe unintentional) part of ii's worldbuilding but it's interesting to me!!#there isnt like. a lot of worldbuilding for in ii (and most other object shows i've watched). and thats ok! not every story needs a lot -#- of worldbuilding! but i do wish there was more worldbuilding in object shows. probably is; haven't watched that many shows#anyways an implication of this is that parents sometimes have to look up what their baby is. or maybe theres a specialist#who specializes in knowing objects. from across the world. or smth#though in a time before the wonders of the internet_ there'd probably be a chance of them just. not knowing what their child was#and thus not being able to name them correctly in this universe
