* Pioneered, and possibly created, by ''Series/StarTrekTheOriginalSeries'', where the main characters were Kirk (white American from Iowa), [=McCoy=] (white American from Georgia), Spock (Vulcan, with his mother coming from an unspecified Earth country), Uhura (Kenyan), Sulu (Japanese American from California), Chekhov (Russian) and Scotty (Scottish). Expanded later in the franchise, as even more characters representing other ''species'' were included. In ''Series/StarTrekTheNextGeneration'', for example, there was a Frenchman (Picard), a few Americans (Riker, Crusher), a Somalian (La Forge), a Belarussian-by-adoption (Worf, who, as a Klingon, obviously represents a whole other "nation" as well), and an Irishman (O'Brien). ''[[Series/StarTrekDeepSpaceNine Deep Space Nine]]'' had an American (Sisko), the Belarussian-by-adoption (Worf), the Irishman (O'Brien) and somebody clearly of a multi-ethnic background (Bashir). ''[[Series/StarTrekVoyager Voyager]]'' wasn't as diverse but tried to make up for it with more aliens. ''[[Series/StarTrekEnterprise Enterprise]]'' had a few Americans (Archer and Trip), an Englishman (Reed) and a Japanese (Sato).

* ''Series/BattleFeverJ'', the third ''Franchise/SuperSentai'' show had a strange variation of this idea where the members except for Miss America were "from" nations around the world, but since they were played by Japanese actors, they were Japanese who had been sent to Russia or France to be trained in combat and in acquiring tastes for caviar and escargo. The [[LegacyCharacter first]] Miss America was the only exception since she was played by a Japanese-American woman. The peculiarities of this series have something to do with the leftovers of the [[WhatCouldHaveBeen original idea]] to make the show "Captain Japan", a Japanese interpretation of ComicBook/CaptainAmerica under license from Creator/MarvelComics.
