I am a student and lover of languages. Not just the languages themselves, but their history and data. And I was looking for a list ranking languages by native-speaking countries. For example, English may be official in some 60 plus countries, but it is only the native-majority of about 10 of those countries if not less... (1.UK 2.US 3.Canada 4.Ireland 5.Jamaica 6.Australia 7.New Zealand 8.Bahamas and I may be missing a couple of native-majority countries) But the likes of India, Pakistan, most of Africa would not be included on the list because they are not native-majority English speaking countries. Has anyone seen such a list? I am having trouble finding it, it seems very hard to find, but the data on it might be very interesting. An alleged global language like French may only have like three native-majority French speaking countries. Thank you very much in advance if you could find and share a list like that.
