Your ISP is your internet service provider. Their servers are basically your hardline connection to the internet. Unless you found some way to tap into the internet much like some people tap into cable tv lines, then you wouldn't need an ISP. Making the ISP local means faster download and upload speeds. If I lived in Africa and had an ISP in say Europe, everytime I wanted to access a website I would first have to make a request from my ISP in Europe who would then have to filter my request send a response from their servers and then open the page I originally attempted to open. This distance just to send a request to your ISP is tedious and thus slowing your internet dramatically. So using a closer server from a closer ISP means each time you send a request its almost instantaneous and the real speed your measure it to the server of the website you requested.
