Any idea who has Italian and Turkish ?


If you zoom in, there are grey areas on this map found here. The attached article provides some additional data.

If you compare those grey areas to the map below,

we can assume Italian and Turkish is possibly the #1 language being learned in one of these countries:
Svalvard (Norway)
Western Sahara
North Somalia
New Caledonia (France) 
Soloman Islands
Falkland Islands (U.K)
Suriname
Puerto Rico (U.S.)
Kosovo
(Various small island countries are not visible on the top map)

Also, if you zoom in on Luxembourg, the low resolution of pixels could be either the dark blue or dark green. I couldn't tell which color it is, but I believe Luxembourg is indeed #1 in Italian or Turkish.

If I were to make a guess, Luxembourg is #1 for Italian and Kosovo is #1 for Turkish.

Looking at that link, Luxembourg seems to be French, and Kosovo German.
I wish they'd have published a table with a breakdown of countries.

I'm thinking perhaps the Vatican is Italian. Tons of foreign cardinals and other christians come to work for the Holy See, and have to learn Italian.

Stumped for Turkish. I thought maybe Cyprus, but it's English there.
