Accents are caused by the influence of a mother language on an acquired language. So whether I'm learning Spanish, French, Italian..., I'd have an American accent when trying to speak any language other than English. If you've ever heard a native Spanish, French or Italian or other speaker trying to speak English, you've no doubt heard their accent. Did you mean dialect? Dialect is a regional way of speaking one's language. Southerners can usually be readily spotted in a group of non-Southerners for example. As to how many there are, it depends on how specific you want to be. Yankees speak differently from Southerners, but New Yorkers speak differently than other Yankees. Within New York there are several broad regionalisms (such as N of Syracuse, around Rochester, around Albany). Yet you can get more specific still. NYC has at least the different dialects of the 5 borroughs. Many who live within those borroughs can often pidgeon-hole people to within a few blocks of where they live by the way they speak. And we haven't even gotten to the issue of idiolects...
