Well, that's a face. C'mon, guy, she worked hard for that rank.

"This is a bad time to say I never took geography classes," Shepard replies, and sighs. Okay, right, so... All of those names were unfamiliar to her, which meant, "So, you've never been out of the country, then. Or...Empire? Whatever you call it."

China is a very big place, as terrestrial settlements go. And even so, it has influence and power far outsizing its size and economic sphere, just for the sake of pure populace-origin. But the fact that Chinese and Russian are among the mandatory languages taught to officers doesn't man Shepard knows anything about the landscape or history of the Asian continent. Somehow, her current situation wasn't among the numerous potential problems written about in the setbook.

"I'm Earthborn too," She shrugs, knowing that's hardly the point of shared cultural importance for him as it is for her version of humanity, "I got off the homeworld and out to the stars the minute they'd take me."
