Why are clones New Zealand?

Temuera Morrison, the actor of Jango Fett in Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones, is from New Zealand and that accent slipped into his character of Jango and likewise the clones. Dee Bradley Baker, voice actor for clones in TCW, of course had to emulate that. So hence why clones have a New Zealand accent.

Why do all the clones have the same accent?

If you want a smart-alek answer, it's because they used the same actor for all the clones' voices in the movies. However, in reality, as Jango Fett was raised by Mandalorians (as we learn that he's a foundling in The Mandalorian), that's probably where his accent came from.

Are accents genetic in Star Wars?

Accents aren't genetic, and although Jango did train some of the higher-ranking clone troopers personally, that wouldn't necessarily mean they would pick up his accent. Only Boba Fett, the unaltered clone Jango took in as his son, spent enough time around Jango to have picked up his accent.
