This is the correct info:

Belle & Cinderella are from France.
Jasmine is from the fictional city of Agrabah, which is based off Bagdhad, so she is from Iraq.
Ariel is from Denmark
Mulan is from China
Pocahontas is from North America (Virginia)
Snow White is from Germany
Aurora...in Sleeping Beauty it never outright explains where she is from, but possibly Germany or England.

I'm going to argue Germany for Aurora--her castle is based on Neuschwanstein.

I'll agree with the folks who say French for Cinderella. Her stepmother is Lady Tremaine, and a family named DuBois (Doo-bwahhhhhh) is mentioned at the ball.

Belle, French, duh.
Jasmine, Arabic, ditto.

Snow White and Ariel were both listed for their best known authors: Germany's Grimms and Denmark's Andersen, respectively. Though, technically, I suppose Ariel is Atlantican...just as Giselle is Andalasian.

Pocahontas and Tiana, American--though in different ways.

Esmerelda, unknown... Gypsies in France in 1482 could be Muslim, Jewish, bi-racial, tri-racial, anything the French aristocracy didn't like--hence, the living in exile. Maybe some Spanish in her? Perhaps North African?

Megara, Greek.
Mulan, Chinese.
Jane, English.
Nala, African... ;-)

And Rapunzel? We could guess as we did for Snow White and argue Grimms Brothers = German. But, rumor has it she's stylized in French Roccoco, so we'll see. Guess they're giving up on the polite nod to globalization and going back to indefinable western-European white girls.

The Disney Princesses are from these nations! And As i have the proofs there will be no further arguements!!
1)Snow White: Netherlands/Dutch Republic
Wikipedia tells this and the article is semi-protected too so this cant be wrong!
2)Cinderella: France
Again by wikipedia and in the movie whenat the end Lady tremaine goes to wake her daughtrs to tell them about Duke's coming the micegus and jaq also follow her through the opening of a FLEUR DE LIS sign which is an important FRENCH SIGN!
3) Aurora: French
At the end when the fairies appear in the balcony there is a cloth hanging which shows FLEUR DE LIS signs which is an important French sign!
4) Ariel: Russia
Ursula says in poor unfortunate souls that the wind come out of the Caspian Sea proving that Ariel was either eurasian or Asian and not purely european
5) Belle: French
6) Pocahontas: Virginian/American
7) Mulan: Chinese
8) Tiana: Canadian(New Orleans)
9) Rapunzel: Turkish
The Castle Shape and Kingdom Dance tune are from a Turkish Annual Festival.,., Afterall John Lasseter stated that Rapunzel will not be a European Princess butfrom either Africa or Western Asia!
10) Jasmine: Saudi Arabia
The first song by the storyteller tells us they are Arabian Nights!

So you think Tiana is from Canada, and Rapunzel is from...Turkey? I think you may need to watch the movies again. And Wikipedia is usually right, except when it's not.

I'm an expert at this so hear me out

Snow White: German (not dutch, there are no castles in the netherlands)
Cinderella: French
Sleeing Beauty: most likely great Britain (there is no obvious distinction if it's French or German, so that's the best guess)
Ariel: Denmark
Belle: French (obviously)
Jasmine: iraqi (even though the fashion and cultural attitude is highly inaccurate)
Pocahontas: Jamestown, Virginia US
Mulan: Alaska haha jk..... China
Tiana: New Orleans, Louisiana US
Rapunzel: German (Saxon) (there are also many claimes it takes place in Turkey or another Ocean surrounded country, but no ones really sure because they based the town on Fantasy land XD)
Merida: Scotland

Well, I agree that Belle and Cinderella are from France and Jasmine might be from Iran. Mulan, Pocahontas and Tiana are easy as well.

With Aurora it might be a little tricky. The Names Phillip an Stefan or Stephan ( Prince and Auroras father) are originally greek the name Hubertus (Phillips father) has german origin. From the movies design it could be medieval Germany or England, but you must keep in mind that in that time (depends on when it takes place) Europe wasn't the Europe we know today. And maybe Disney just took different europian Symbols, names etc and mixed them up a little bit and out came this europian like country.
There is also both a german (Brother Grimm) and french (Charles Perrault) version of the fairytale...

The forest in Snow White could be the Black Forest in Germany, but otherwhise I can't find any clues about it in the movie. Of course it would be only logical to asume that she is german as the fairy tale was collected by the Brothers Grimm.

I don't know how you can get the Idea that Rapunzel is turkish though...

In general I think it's an interesting discussion but really...Disney is American and I don't mean to be rude but some Americans have sometimes a little weird image of Europe and mix thinks a little bit up sometimes ;) So I wouldn't be to pig-headed on that topic.

And the Neuschwanstein Castle in Germany is not for Aurora, it's for Snow White. Either way, it makes more sense because the Black Forest is near that castle .

ashee88 said:
Some of the answers on here are stupid! Tiana, from Canada? Really?
I am going to guess at a few. Based on fashions, names, etc.
Cinderella: Russia based on the clothes, her stepsisters names and the fashions of the men as well.
Aurora: I personally think she is Italian. There are blonde Italians in North Italy.
Ariel: Just guessing, maybe English or Scottish. I really think Scottish though.
Belle: Obviously French.
Tiana: American. Duh.
Merida: Scottish. Her accent gives that away.
Jasmine: Middle Eastern.
Pocahontas: Native American.
Mulan: is NOT really a Princess... Her beaux was a Captain, not a prince.
Snow White: I think Dutch or German.
Rapunzel: Probably German.
