English speaking world
Did you know that in many countries English is the dominant language, but does not have official status?
In Australia, English is spoken by the majority of the population and is the only language used in government institutions, yet Australia does not have an official language. The case is the same in the United Kingdom and the United States, however many states and regions in the U.S. have English as an official language. English is an official language of Canada ( with French) and the Philippines ( with Filipino).
English is one of the official languages of the United Nations, European Union and the International Olympic Committee. Many countries which were colonies of U.K. have English as official language.
