@onlmaps Well, well, there are some true, yet somewhat misleading figures here obviously. Those 12% in Slovakia does not mean that everybody is so "educated", it only means that people understand and can reasonably well "imitate" Czech. I am not even sure that shall be called "foreign" language, given that the two languages are intelligible. Those "12%" are certainly a different quality that the "14%" of the Netherlands which mean that people truly speak a foreign language.

Similarly for Baltics, vast majority of population speaks Russian, which technically is a foreign language, but I'd wager that in 30 years that number will change drastically.
