It can be hard to get started on Etsy, you need to bring people to your shop, just listing items on Etsy isn't always enough. Plus keep in mind jewelry is probably the toughest category on Esty since there is more of it than anything thing else on the site.
Different sites have different rules but most do not expect you to stay exclusive in what you sell, so yes, you should be able to sell the same or similar items on different sites.
Most people shopping on Etsy will buy from other countries, I have a few times with great success. And I've personally had lots of sales in my Etsy shop from other countries. Just make sure your prices are good and your shipping rates are reasonable. I've seen shops out of the states that are asking way more for their items than you could get them here in the US and also shops with crazy shipping costs too.
Hope that helps
