The term is US-centric. It means anything outside the borders of the USA. This includes Canada and Mexico.
Character set is not suggested by "international" in this context. Character set is managed by NLS. In theory you could process US data specified in Kanji characters. However, I suspect that the MNS stage works best when the data are in English.

I believe you can overrides the rules by looking in the 'WAVES Rules' folder.
For historical information, WAVES was 'Worldwide Address Validation and Enhancement System', and was the precursor to 'Address Verification Interface' (AVI). WAVES used the MNS rules to standardize the address data before matching it to the reference data. Hence, the name of the folder is 'WAVES Rules'.
