Take the Basque area as example, it is not long ago, that only French and Spanish (according to the side you are looking at) were officially recognized, we would have completely ignored the native Basque population with this rule. Also, if you write "official language", would this include recognized minority languages? Should we have a different tag for this? See here for example about the only one "official language" in France and other relevant languages: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Language_policy_in_France cheers, Martin
