You forgot the Portuguese.

Men of War they are.
Surprise to me.

Portugal has 10 million people but 170 million speak Portuguese world wide.(17) times their number

England has 51 million people but 375 million speak English world wide.
(7.35) times their number.

Spain has 40 million people but 330 million speak Spanish world wide.
(8.25) times their number.

Germany has 82 million but 98 million speak German world wide.
(1.20) times their number.

France has 62 million but 113 million speak French world wide.
(1.80) times their number.
Netherlands has 16 million but 27 million speak Dutch world wide.

China has 1,330,000,000 but shows 836 million who speak Manderen Chinese world wide.

Based on current populations Portugal has high score per capita #1 (170,000,000)

Spain seems to be the #2 in conquest and spreading their language and culture world wide per capita. (330,00,000)

England follows as #3 (375,000,000)

Actually England, Spain and France dwarf the rest in numbers and set the stage for domination and claims of holy guidance in the battle for the hearts minds and asses of the unwashed leaving little for those who followed. Time has a habit of changing things like the shifting sands of the deserts and that may be what we are experiencing today.
