Outworld and Edenia are 2 separate places, Edenia was annex into outworld by Shao Kahn, this may be re-visionist history or they are doing the God of Destruction made Freize destroy Planet Vegeta thing here.@@hazy4366
@@Wolfrahmmetallicno, one of his defining traits was the Japanese shirai Ryu had a huge rivalry with the Chinese Lin Kuei, his name is also pure Japanese
In the new timeline its like this Baraka - Edenian Shang Tsung - Outworlder Raiden - Chinese Havik - Seido (Orderealm to become Chaosrealm) Plus it looks like so far that Edenia doesnt exist anymore, but its merged by Liu Kang with Outworld to stop the Outworld-Edenian war. Thats why Outworld looks so different and lush and Sindel and Jerrod are ruling. That makes Edenians native Outworld race not nationality.
In game they do refer to it as it’s own distinct ethnicity, like centaurian or shokon. I think there are other human groups, like the ones shao Reiko and li mei are from, which aren’t edenian but from outworld.
Prob not merged but the ruler and capital realm has changed. Before the ruling realm was Outworld, ruled by Shao Kahn, who eventually conquered Edenia. Now its the reverse, Outworld was prob not conquered but it was always a vassal realm of Edenia as designed by Liu Kang.
@@Chris-we7hh nah if Edenia was the main part of the realm they would call it Edenia but they call it Outworld in the story. Sun Do (where Sindel rules from) is definitely apart of Outworld as it's mentioned in Deadly Alliance (and shown in the Konquest mode of Deception) in Li Mei's bio as her home village. In the old timeline she was an Outworlder and Edenia had long since been separated from Outworld during both Deadly Alliance and Deception so if it was a part of Edenia it wouldn't of been in Outworld.
Frost is not from China. She doesn't look Asian. She's Caucasian and she is an American of Cryomancer descent. She and Sub-Zero are not necessarily of that race, they are just their descendants after so many years.
China also have caucasian looks alike races, such as Uighur, Kazakh, Kyrgiz, Russian, Xiongnu, etc. They're non-Han minority ethnic. I guess Frost was came from non-Han Chinese ethnic background.
@@NoelJohnCarlo Yes, Frost certainly is. She was raised by a single mother and later she was an orphan at the age of the twelve when she lashed out and killed her own mother.

Liu Kang changed the origins for some characters in his timeline: Baraka is an edenian or he was before tarkat took everything from me. Shang and Quan are from Outworld, they had meaningless lives until titan Shang made them sorcerers. Havik is from Seido and his real name is Dairou. The only thing that is unchanged is Frost's origins. She is an American.
Shang Tsung and Quan Chi are from Outworld but they've always been of the Chinese origin. I mean look at their names. It's in their names, c'mon. Frost is Chinese, but half white i think. Her real name is Xiuying.
Some of the nationalities that these characters have in the video are taking into account their old timeline selves & not what they are in the current timeline. There were quite a bit of errors, especially considering the title of the video says Mortal Kombat 1 Nationalities.
Mavado = possibly Spanish Hsu Hao = allegedly Mongolian Kabal = honestly not sure, he has an American accent but so do most of the characters regardless of origin.

Frost's never looked Asian. She's Caucasian. She mentioned she was an orphan in America. She and Sub-Zero are not exactly apart of this race, but they are their descendants many years later.
Probably she is from Macau. Which is a Portuguese and chinese peninsula right besides hong kong Frost is probably half Portuguese-Chinese and American Her father is Portuguese Chinese and mother is American Or as china or the UN called Macau citizens Macanese(it sounded like macaroni and cheese put together into a one single word as an official nationality of Macau, China)
I mean with Raiden I think it’s China since that’s where he is with kung Lao and they talk about getting off the farm for once in their lives so I think it’s safe to say he was born their.
In older games Baraka is from Outworld. In MK1 he clearly stated in his dialogue that he is Edenian. Shang Tsung has always been from outworld unless I missed something down the line!
Corrections: This timeline has a new Geras created by Liu Kang. Not from Kronika’s Keep. Shang Tsung is a native Outworlder, not Chinese. Although we don’t know Frost’s nationality in this timeline, in the previous timeline she was American. Baraka states he was Edenian in this timeline before being infected with Tarkat. Havik comes from Orderrealm in this timeline instead of Chaosrealm like in previous timelines. (not a change that I like but whatever) It is never explicitly stated that Li Mei was born in Sun Do. Also it’s a city, not a nationality. Raiden is Chinese in this timeline.
Small corrections: 1. Shang Tsung is from Outworld in this timeline (like Quan Chi) 2. Havik is from Seido (Orderrealm) 3. Baraka is Edenian 4. Syzoth's species is Zaterran but he's from Zikandur Province (so just plain old Outworld) 5. Raiden is from China like Kung Lao in this timeline Just some changes that were made purely in this game lol
Fun fact about Kano's nationality: In the original game he was supposed to be Asian (I think Chinese, specifically, or maybe Japanese). It wasn't until the first movie when the actor gave him an Australian accent (that apparently was actually supposed to be British) that it became so associated with the character that he was canonically retconned to be Australian. Think about it, "Kano" isn't exactly and Aussie name, though I guess it's assumed to be an alias.
I know it will never happen, and maybe this isn't a popular idea, but I'm itching for the next MK game to be an open world adventure game. Kinda like Skyrim but in the MK universe. I would love to explore a lot of these realms.
Cyrax is Tswana? Botswana is usually overlooked when people talk about Africa. Usually people use South Africa, Nigeria, Kenya, or Egypt, so this is a welcome change.
Mileena: Correct, even if Edenia in this new timeline was always Outworld's seat of power Kitana, Tanya, Sindel: See Above Liu Kang: Argument could be made for Kronika's Keep. Kung Lao: Correct, Fengjian specifically Kenshi, Johnny Cage: Correct Sub-Zero: Correct Scorpion: Correct, Hanzo is Japanese while Kuai Liang, the current one, is Chinese Smoke: Correct, Prague specifically Reptile: Correct, Zikandur specifically Geras: Correct Shang Tsung: Outworld General Shao: Correct Frost: I THINK correct Kano and Sonya: Correct Baraka: Edenia Ashrah: Correct Nitara: Correct Havik: Seido, Orderrealm Darrius: Correct Sareena: Correct Li Mei: Correct, with possible note that Sun Do COULD be part of Edenia in this timeline.

@@Cano-62Kameo Sub-Zero is Kuai Liang. Both the Kameo Ninjas have their attires based on their appearances in MKII. Bi-Han died and Kuai took the mantle to honor his elder brother. His notable scar was not yet present.
Mokap - USA Kai - USA Kobra - USA Kira - Afghanistan (?) Drahmin - Outworld (before spectre) Meat - Outworld Reptile's ancestors - Earthrealm Taven e Daegon - Edenia Blaze - Edenia (longtime in Outworld) Quan Chi - Outworld (Liu's timeline) Sheeva's ancestor - China or India (theory)
Isn't Scorpion was supposed to be Japanese, as Hanzo Hashashi? While Frost may looks like Russian or Czech or others foreigner as European races came to China for that roleplay of her attitudes and ambitious goals
In the video it shows both Kuai Lian and Hanzo as scorpion, Hanzo is Japanese but Kuai Liang is chinese and in the new time line Kaui Liang is the new scorpion instead of being the second sub zero like in the previous original timeline. Frost was always chinese, Xyujing is her real name, in mk 11 her face was modeled after an american model named Sydney Card, maybe thats why the confusion but she still remains chinese like most of the linkuei clan members excluding a few like smoke and cyrax.
@@thesilentsociety3252ok where are y’all getting this from? It’s in the game as the reason why smoke is Lin kuei. His parents and sister was killed by the Lin kuei while on a hunt and the grandmaster felt obligated to adopt him because they were the reason he became an orphan.
He was in the original timeline. Shang was earthrelms chosen one then betrayed it for outworld when Shao Khan offered him power. In liu kang's time lime he is from outworld though I think.
Shang tsung was cheated in mortal kombat and that is how he turn evil when he was sentence him to outworld as punishment for shang tsung for breaking the rules of mk tournament
@@ItsjusttyusKameos aren't canon, The original Hanzo is with Harumi ( his wife ) on another timeline sharing their pain ( This Harumi was Scorpion on it's timeline and suffered the same events as Hanzo )
I have some few good suggestions for these characters: Milleena, Sindel & Kitana, Li Mei can be from South Asia Shao Khan maybe from china Tanya from the Caribbeans Darrius from US Reiko & Rain from Middle East Quan-Chi & Nitara from North Europe
If Capcom is ready to collab with Neatherrealm Studio, it won’t a surprise but a nice note if they include the nationalities like with their Street Fighter games.
Is Shang Tsung even a human in this timeline? I thought he was an Outworlder this time. It makes zero sense though that Edenia and Outworld are merged in this timeline tho

Tanya would be brazilian? She's too stiff, doesn't feel like a brazilian at all. The most brazilian-like of that list would be Reptile and Ashrah, methinks.

I still love the fact that if it weren't for the 1995 movie, we wouldn't have Australian Kano. The actor gave him so much character. And later games built upon that
Let’s speculate on Kronika and Geras’ origins because does it really make sense for them to just always be or were they themselves plucked from time in a fate like way
Fun fact: in MK 1 and 2 Kano was originally Japanese but the movie made him Australian and Midway wanted more variety so they made him Aussie in the games too

I love that just because the actor was so iconic Kano changed from Japanese to half Japanese/half Australian to full blown Aussie
Fun fact: the actor was actually English and presented to be Aussie to get more roles. We'll still claim him though, he was awesome. R.I.P.
Apparently Cockney and just played and claimed to be Aussie
I mean with Raiden I think it’s China since that’s where he is with kung Lao and they talk about getting off the farm for once in their lives so I think it’s safe to say he was born their.
Yes, you are right
Shujinko looks a lot more like Shang Tsung than Shang Tsung looks like Shang Tsung.
In older games Baraka is from Outworld. In MK1 he clearly stated in his dialogue that he is Edenian. Shang Tsung has always been from outworld unless I missed something down the line!
The original Shang Tsung used to be Earthrealm's champion
Shujinko even though the name is japanese, he comes from China too.
Corrections:
This timeline has a new Geras created by Liu Kang. Not from Kronika’s Keep.
Shang Tsung is a native Outworlder, not Chinese.
Although we don’t know Frost’s nationality in this timeline, in the previous timeline she was American.
Baraka states he was Edenian in this timeline before being infected with Tarkat.
Havik comes from Orderrealm in this timeline instead of Chaosrealm like in previous timelines. (not a change that I like but whatever)
It is never explicitly stated that Li Mei was born in Sun Do. Also it’s a city, not a nationality.
Raiden is Chinese in this timeline.
Baraka is still Edenian, Tarkat doesn't change that, unlike the previous timeline where Tarkat was a race
rain is really buff as a mage
Small corrections:
1. Shang Tsung is from Outworld in this timeline (like Quan Chi)
2. Havik is from Seido (Orderrealm)
3. Baraka is Edenian
4. Syzoth's species is Zaterran but he's from Zikandur Province (so just plain old Outworld)
5. Raiden is from China like Kung Lao in this timeline
Just some changes that were made purely in this game lol
Fun fact about Kano's nationality: In the original game he was supposed to be Asian (I think Chinese, specifically, or maybe Japanese). It wasn't until the first movie when the actor gave him an Australian accent (that apparently was actually supposed to be British) that it became so associated with the character that he was canonically retconned to be Australian. Think about it, "Kano" isn't exactly and Aussie name, though I guess it's assumed to be an alias.
He was chinese american but yes thats the reason for his change, as an homage to the actor who died in 2003.
Seeing every earthrealmer from china or usa then seeing smoke from czech republic.
Edenia do not exist in Liu Kang 's timeline, It's part of Outworld now.
Rain is very likely an Indian given his face model in the game. Indo Aryan, likely Gujarati or Punjabi
He’s Egyptian
@@kago500he’s Persian
So you are just thinking he is Indian based off his face?
Greetings from Czech Republic❤❤.
"Aggghh Yall really gonna do me like that?!! OUTTTWWOORRLLLDDD!!?" - Baraka 😂😂
Baraka is edenian, Shang Tsung is an out worlder, you can just call li mei an outworlder, Havik is from orderrealm, and raiden is Chinese.
This video is referencing the original timeline
@@thesilentsociety3252 it says mk1 tho
I know it will never happen, and maybe this isn't a popular idea, but I'm itching for the next MK game to be an open world adventure game. Kinda like Skyrim but in the MK universe. I would love to explore a lot of these realms.
you can play mk deception story mode where you can visit most of mk worlds such as metherrealm and outworld
@@pachkamalabara9650 I know about deception, but I'm hoping for something more modern.
Havik is from Seido Chaosrealm doesn't exist in this timeline
He is intent to make Seido become Chaosrealm after Rain helped him drown the whole Seido.
yeah so he's from seido not chaos realm
Haven't Shujinko turned into Shang Tsung?
Ikr?
Cyrax is Tswana? Botswana is usually overlooked when people talk about Africa. Usually people use South Africa, Nigeria, Kenya, or Egypt, so this is a welcome change.
Since 2011 he is.
Indeed… we are so overlooked 😂😭🇧🇼🇧🇼
1:12 that Chinese song had me dying 😂
Imagine if this whole time, Kabal was Canadian.
Wow, there is actually Czech republic character? I feel proud
All architecture and design of the outworld looks like Southeast Asia. As a Southeast Asian, I can confirm that we live in Edenia.
Isn't Kano Japanese and Yakuza who has got kicked away?(in original timeline)
You may mentioned abt Kenshi
Kenshi is the Japanese one. Kano is Australian
Kano was originally Japanese-American. Trevor Goddard's portrayal of Kano in the 1995 movie retconned his nationality.
He might be Japanese Australian
@@falconerayx750 Yeah. Maybe Eurasian-Aussie considering him looking Western.
Smoke: Yes, I drink Staropramen, how could you tell?
Mileena: Correct, even if Edenia in this new timeline was always Outworld's seat of power
Kitana, Tanya, Sindel: See Above
Liu Kang: Argument could be made for Kronika's Keep.
Kung Lao: Correct, Fengjian specifically
Kenshi, Johnny Cage: Correct
Sub-Zero: Correct
Scorpion: Correct, Hanzo is Japanese while Kuai Liang, the current one, is Chinese
Smoke: Correct, Prague specifically
Reptile: Correct, Zikandur specifically
Geras: Correct
Shang Tsung: Outworld
General Shao: Correct
Frost: I THINK correct
Kano and Sonya: Correct
Baraka: Edenia
Ashrah: Correct
Nitara: Correct
Havik: Seido, Orderrealm
Darrius: Correct
Sareena: Correct
Li Mei: Correct, with possible note that Sun Do COULD be part of Edenia in this timeline.
Reiko: Correct
Jax: Correct
Raiden: China, Fengjian specifically
Shujinko: Correct
Stryker: Correct
Cyrax: Correct to my knowledge
Sektor: Correct
Motaro: Centaurian Canton
Rain: See Mileena
Goro: Shokan Canton
Raiden is inspired by a Shinto god who is Japanese (raijin) so he should supposedly be Japanese too?
@@Vini_kazu_etoHe talks of his home in Fengjian. Could just be adopted by Madam Bo, but yeah.
@@alunbuss7877 oh ok
2:04 many people are going to be upset but where is Botswana? Never heard of that place
2 things.
- Baraka is Edenian in the new timeline
- Sub-Zero and Scorpion are Chinese American
chinese american??
@@SonnyBCreative They're really just northern Chinese i think
I didn’t know NightWolf was really from Scotland 🏴 😹
Now it is confirmed cameo scorpion is hanzo hashashi i think cameo sub zero is kuai Liang.
Cameo sub zero doesnt have that scar so he cant be Kuai Liang. Eyes do match to Bi Han kinda
@@Cano-62Kameo Sub-Zero is Kuai Liang. Both the Kameo Ninjas have their attires based on their appearances in MKII. Bi-Han died and Kuai took the mantle to honor his elder brother. His notable scar was not yet present.
No
YEEESSSS, Smoke is real slav in the MK game, DAYUUMMM 😂
Cyrax and Smoke is my surprise
What was the difference between Scorpion and Hanzo?
MK1’s Scorpion is Kuai Liang.
Edenia is part of outworld now btw, no longer is it a different realm
Havik is from order realm chaos realm doesn’t yet exist

Isn't Scorpion was supposed to be Japanese, as Hanzo Hashashi? While Frost may looks like Russian or Czech or others foreigner as European races came to China for that roleplay of her attitudes and ambitious goals
In the video it shows both Kuai Lian and Hanzo as scorpion, Hanzo is Japanese but Kuai Liang is chinese and in the new time line Kaui Liang is the new scorpion instead of being the second sub zero like in the previous original timeline. Frost was always chinese, Xyujing is her real name, in mk 11 her face was modeled after an american model named Sydney Card, maybe thats why the confusion but she still remains chinese like most of the linkuei clan members excluding a few like smoke and cyrax.
Linkuei really traveled across the country just to adopt a white haired kid😅
Smoke in the original timeline is a child of a sleeper agent
@@thesilentsociety3252ok where are y’all getting this from? It’s in the game as the reason why smoke is Lin kuei. His parents and sister was killed by the Lin kuei while on a hunt and the grandmaster felt obligated to adopt him because they were the reason he became an orphan.
Shang Tsung.. is an Earthrealmer??
I think he’s from out world
He was in the original timeline. Shang was earthrelms chosen one then betrayed it for outworld when Shao Khan offered him power. In liu kang's time lime he is from outworld though I think.
Exiled earthrealmer. Yes but the elder gods strip his nationality and his honor and banished shang to outworld. He is now a converted outworlder
Shang tsung was cheated in mortal kombat and that is how he turn evil when he was sentence him to outworld as punishment for shang tsung for breaking the rules of mk tournament
@@artisticsolarninjathat's neat.....
But those are his bio from previous timeline. We're in the new era now, that bio is irrelevant now.
Sonya Blade (Austin, TX)
Johnny Cage (Los Angeles, CA)
Curtis Stryker (New York, NY)
If they made hanzo the kameo imma be pissed
He is the kameo
GOD DAMMIT
Well no duh he's the Kameo, Hanzo is like 9 years old in this new timeline
@@WalkBesideMekameos arent canon
@@ItsjusttyusKameos aren't canon, The original Hanzo is with Harumi ( his wife ) on another timeline sharing their pain ( This Harumi was Scorpion on it's timeline and suffered the same events as Hanzo )
This whole time I thought shujinko was just an old Shang Tsung
I have some few good suggestions for these characters:
Milleena, Sindel & Kitana, Li Mei can be from South Asia
Shao Khan maybe from china
Tanya from the Caribbeans
Darrius from US
Reiko & Rain from Middle East
Quan-Chi & Nitara from North Europe
none of the characters you mentioned are from earth. so, no.
Idk about south Asian, Kitana looked like the actress jessica henneick in the more modern games
If Capcom is ready to collab with Neatherrealm Studio, it won’t a surprise but a nice note if they include the nationalities like with their Street Fighter games.
Is Shang Tsung even a human in this timeline? I thought he was an Outworlder this time. It makes zero sense though that Edenia and Outworld are merged in this timeline tho

Baraka is Edenian in this game.
Smoke is Czech? I did not know!
Smoke is Czech ?!🇨🇿
Wow, that’s cool !
Nie veľa hier majú charakterov, ktorí pochádzajú z našej bratskej krajiny.
(Not many games have characters that come from our brother country)
Greetings from Slovakia 🇸🇰🇸🇰
I kinda wish Kitana, Mileena, Sindel, & Reiko were born as japanese, Rain were born as korean, and Li Mei were born as chinese
why
Bruh why
Why
Bo rai Cho must be Korean. Not Rain who is Mid-eastern
@@tomvhresvelg9286rain is Indian actually based on his last mortal kombat weapon and model.
Hanzo the first scorpion is Japanese
Bi han the second scorpion in this new timeline ? He is Chinese
Lemme break this down for you, Hanzo is a child in this timeline, Kuai Liang is Scorpion and Bi Han is Sub-Zero
Cyrax is actually Nigerian it’s in his intro dialogue
No he’s not😂
Finally some representation....I always felt left out as an American
there have been Americans since MK
@@SonnyBCreative I was being sarcastic
If there is only Earthrealm in MK, the non-earthrealmer nationality will be :
🇲🇳 Kitana
🇲🇳 Mileena
🇲🇳 Sindel
🇲🇳 Ermac Jerrod
🇯🇵 Reiko

🇬🇷 Motaro
🇨🇳 General Shao
🇨🇳 Li Mei

🇮🇳 Rain
🇬🇭 Geras
🇧🇷 Tanya
🇭🇺 Nittara
🇦🇪 Baraka
🇬🇧 Sareena
🇳🇱 Havik
🇯🇲 Darrius
🇦🇺 Tremor
FYI I'm from 🇮🇩 Indonesia, so I claim some characters clearly from my country, such as *Ashrah* for using Keris (Javanese traditional sword) and *Reptile* for his natural shape looks alike Komodo dragon, also for *Khamaleon* as female Zaterran (Zaterra such as _Komodo Island_ where reptile species live everywhere).
Tanya would be brazilian? She's too stiff, doesn't feel like a brazilian at all. The most brazilian-like of that list would be Reptile and Ashrah, methinks.
New characters:

No, Takeda is from Thailand.
Actually, if you look at Ashrah, she doesn't look like she's from the earth, but if you look at her weapon, (Kris), it's possible she's Indonesian, Malaysian or Filipino.
Weapon doesn't define ur race. Smoke is Czech but uses a kerambit which is an Indonesian weapon
Always thought she was meant to be middle eastern
I still love the fact that if it weren't for the 1995 movie, we wouldn't have Australian Kano. The actor gave him so much character. And later games built upon that
Geras was also supposed to be from Africa but it was not been confirmed it was just speculation.
Lol wut? He's a construct. He can be made into whatever race his creator want.
Let’s speculate on Kronika and Geras’ origins because does it really make sense for them to just always be or were they themselves plucked from time in a fate like way
Sindel and Tanya looks very pretty, as Sonya is too
Fun fact: in MK 1 and 2 Kano was originally Japanese but the movie made him Australian and Midway wanted more variety so they made him Aussie in the games too
Chinese american actually but yeah they decided to changed him as an homage to the actor.
Wait i thought cyrax was directly from africa
