The installer, no matter which language version I download, is always in the language of the country I reside in.

Basically what the title says.

Download En-US, install, end up with a Chinese installer and subsequently a Chinese version of Firefox.

Download En-GB, install, end up with Chinese again.

Installing the language pack solved my problem but it was infuriating searching for answers.

I have no idea why Mozilla would determine the language of what I download based on my IP.

We use IP's to estimate the locale you will download. You can always pick a different locale by going to https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/all/ to pick a different language.

That's what I did, and I still got the Chinese installer.

Sorry, should have mentioned it's on Windows. Mac seems to be working fine.
