Fun fact did you know that most French speakers are not French themselves?
The average French speaker is from one of France's old African colonies.
Imagine losing your national identity to the people you oppressed and they don't care about having it.
99% of English speakers aren't English. Same thing with Spanish.
They literally went from an empire where the Sun never set to be relegated to an island smaller than Michigan.. and they don't even own the whole island, they have to share it with like 3ish other governments.
The empire was British, not English, so those other countries that the English "share" the island with were a part of that.
