Excluding EBCDIC, which has the same characters, can you name a major character set that doesn't start with a carbon copy of ASCII? Shift JIS starts with ASCII. Big5 starts with ASCII. Every code page starts with ASCII. Unicode, of course, starts with ASCII. Look at just about any (physical) keyboard for any language and it will support ASCII.
