AB In assessing statistical sources, the article compares the state of the European and global Francophonie in 1880 and at the present time. The European Francophonie, or rather the Francophonies, because there are countries with different status within the Francophonie, is special compared to other continents. At the bottom of a historical study and evaluation of statistical data, the article aims to respond primarily to the following questions: what is the paradox of the current European Francophonie? What is the specificity of the French-speaking Czech compared to other European countries? How to promote policy for multilingualism in the concrete situation of the Czech Republic?
