animation or Japanese animation and I generally get the feeling that people
only look to these two places for animation.

What other countries have a well developed animation industries, and what I
should I watch from them?

What other countries have good animation scenes?


The real question is not "who make good animation" but "how many good
animation they make". Like you say Japanese and American animation are really
popular and the reason is the quantity of animated product they make (and some
of them are really good product). Many other countries made good animated
product but usually are a one time thing (not something you see everyday).

Example: Code Lyoko is a good animated product made in France. But there are
not lot's of other France production with the same quality/popularity of Code
Lyoko, while everytime Disney make a new movie is almost always popular.

La freccia azzurra known as How the Toys Saved Christmas in the U.S. (by the
way, Wikipedia say the US version was cut in same scene, probably because the
toys in the italian version do not save Christmas but the "Epiphany" an
holiday that in italy for children means the Befana
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Befana> ) is a really good italian animated
movie made by animation studio Lanterna Magica (that also made the most famous
Lucky and Zorba in Italian: La gabbianella e il gatto) is a really high
quality product but the studio do not produce lot's of things, they just made
3-4 movies and the last one was in 2003. Also, like I said, the US version of
the movie is not even complete.

Chinese and Korean animation are already a thing, but since they usually try
to replicate anime the quality is still low for most product, except for some
really good product like Big Fish & Begonia (also many Japanese product are
made or partially made by Korean and Chinese).

There are some really good Russian animated product of tales, like the snow
queen story: <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Snow_Queen_(1957_film)>

So the answer is yes, there are lot's of good animated product not made in
America or Japan, the only real problem is that are harder to find, not
popular like disney movies and usually are a one time thing.
