* ''Literature/WarsOfTheRealm'': Validus finds the warrior angels whom he recruits for his special bodyguard team stationed on various fronts across the world. In the audiobooks, this is [[LampshadeHanging lampshaded]] by the angels having different accents for their respective "countries of origin": Sason sounds like an Aussie, Brumak has a Russian accent, Crenshaw a Spanish accent, Jayt a Chinese accent, and Rake something approaching South African.

* The collaborative Russian sci-fi novel ''The Road to Mars'' (written by 15 authors) involves a crew of six being sent on humanity's first manned mission to the red planet. The mission is a joint effort between NASA, ESA, and Roscosmos, with the crew made up of two Russians, two Americans (one of whom is black), a Frenchman, and an Italian. Notably, they are the second ''backup'' crew. The original crew was grounded after two of its members died in a plane crash, and the first backup crew was unable to achieve orbit, leaving the third crew the only ones who can get to the ship ''Ares'' in a reasonable timeframe. The multinational crew has to not only get to Mars but beat the Chinese ''Millennium Boat'', which averts this trope by having only a crew of two, both being Chinese.
