Its obvious there is more than one nationality in the matrix and you're looking at it the wrong way, they don't know any better, you only know whats in front of you or what you know to be true, the matrix is a completely different world, the people are born into it, if there is only one city and they are brought up with only one city, they don't question it, they simply hold it as truth.I hope i explained that well, if not, meh.
i know what you're saying. you hold true what you are told. like a curtain pulled over your eyes. you take "truth" for granted not knowing that there is something deeper behind it. 99% of the matrix population do... but the 1%... well, they kick matrix a$$, more or less.
Jedi> wouldn't people know something's up when there is only one city existing? we knew the world that existed before the machines took over. my thought is that, for better "acceptance" of the program, they would program the matrix as the world we once lived in... hence the different continents, countries and cities.
that is a good question...i did not pay attention to the statues except to laugh when they got destroyed...ok, so maybe i didn't laugh, but i didn't look very closely at them. I was actually paying a lot of attention to the mural on the wall...that is interesting. i would have to go back and watch the movie, and i am sad to say, i left my dvds at home when i came to college...🙁
