You can change your address to change stores. See here

The origin of the device itself shouldn't be an issue.

Alternatively, you can get ebooks from stores that don't have DRM, then convert them to mobi with calibre (they are usually in epub format) which can then be read on any kindle model.

If you use a non-kindle model, the issue is that you will still be limited to reading the books on the official kindle app, which will either be unavailable without some rooting (that's the case for kobo I believe), or not optimized to your device (most android readers; for instance the page buttons might not function).

There are calibre plugins to avoid all of that BS but it's in all likelihood not permitted to discuss it in this in this forum.
