Multilingual countries are countries which have plural number of official languages. The most common reasons for this are;

  • A country is comprised of one or more historic "nations" of people
  • Recognition of cultural heritage
  • Mass immigration
  • Political reasons

In addition, many countries have "de facto" common languages not recognised by the state.
