No, you do not need 2 Pokémon from 2 different countries in order to find or hatch a Shiny Pokémon. Some trainers don't even use this method which is known as the Masuda Method but will still find Shiny Pokémon. Finding Shiny Pokémon is all a matter of luck due to only having a 1 out of 8,192 chance of seeing one every time you find a wild Pokémon or receive and hatch a Pokémon Egg however this does not mean on the 8,192nd chance you will receive or find a Shiny because every Pokémon is recalculated every time you run across a wild Pokémon or receive a Pokémon Egg.
You can however use the Masuda Method where you breed 2 Pokémon where one has to be of different nationality to your own which increases the chances of catching a Shiny Pokemon to 1 in 2,048. There is also a chaining method where you use your PokéRadar (only possible in Pokémon Diamond, Pearl and Platinum) to carry on a chain. The more you battle and your chain increases, the more possibility of running into a Shiny Pokémon increases.
Additionally in Pokémon Black 2 and White 2, the Shiny Charm increases the chances of encountering Shiny Pokémon which includes receiving Pokémon via Pokémon Eggs. The Shiny Charm also increases the chances of receiving a Shiny Pokémon via the Masuda Method.
