They don't.
By the way, Mickey Mouse is not known as Mickey Mouse in some European countries.
In Spain Mickey Mouse is Ratón Mickey or Ratón Miguelito
In Germany is Micky Maus
In Italy is Topolino
In Poland is Myszka Miki

it has to do with Walt Disney. he is famous for Disney world and and all of the related Disney programs on TV and in the movies. mickey mouse is the main character of Disney. mickey mouse is an American icon rather than European.

probably because America is where Mickey Mouse originated.
