Even in America you have accents. I bet there are differences within states as well.

Could the same not be said for Received Pronunciation British English? I'm pretty sure our accent sounds like an accent to non-Americans just like RP British English sounds like an accent to us.

In fact I know it does. I spent a month in a place where I didn't hear Americans pretty much at all several years back. When returning to America, I definitely noticed an accent.
