There are no hints apart from the "freedom is SO American" (which... is very far fetched at best) that Mondstadt was supposed to have any US influences. Like, at all. Based on architecture and obviously the language, it's mainly based on Germany and Germany-adjacent countries.
And yeah, I agree that there should have been more darker skinned characters in Sumeru (again, not just because of racism but because of variations in character design). I'm not a huge fan of most of the revealed Sumeru designs so far in general. However... some of the characters have designs that would have made the same people demanding dark skinned characters very likey scream "objectification of POCs" had they been darker.

And sure, there were some expectations. But on the other hand... there have been several NPCs from Sumeru, and exactly none of them was dark skinned.
