Where is the $LANG variable defined?

Hello all,
 
I have two machines running FC2.  One I upgraded from Redhat 9 --> FC1 --> FC2 and the $LANG environmental variable is set to
 
[root@pigpen root]# echo $LANG
en_US
 
On the other machine, I did a fresh install of  FC2 and  the $LANG variable on that is set to:
 
[root@linus ~]# echo $LANG
en_US.UTF-8
 
On the latter machine, whenever I do a man or look at other text files in vi,  I get some characters that are screwed up. That's why I'm assuming that it's the $LANG variable that's doing it. 
 
Any guidance on fixing this is appreciated.
 
Thanks
 
Dave Lester
