This occurred to me...

Seeing as how Britannia occupies North and South America, do you think that Britannians living in the area can speak French, Portugeuse, Spanish, etc.? (theoretically)

And also, if Britannia occupies the Americas, do you think they have Hawaii too? Because Hawaii rocks.

It could be that they retain their own languages for at home, but use one language for diplomacy. If so, I wonder if it would still be French, or if they would have switched to English?

hmmm... It would make sense that they'd speak their own languages at home and then use one for diplomacy since they're all brought together within the confines of the EU. If so, my guess at this point would be French, what with it's past of being THE language for diplomacy and culture, and since they decided to stick Napoleon in there too. Also I'd think using English when it's the official language of Britannia might not agree with them, what with their pride and language's ties to identity and power. They might view it as a bow down to Britannia.

I'd think the higher ups and those involved in politics would know multiple languages, including English and Chinese. But I suppose the question is what the average everyday person speaks.

lol, I feel like we'll probably never actually get our questions answered.
