Georgia
Georgia has 4.9M people, and 4.1M of them are online. Georgian is the most widely spoken language at 86%, one of 7 languages CLDR lists here. Georgian is official nationally, and Abkhazian and Ossetic are official in part of the territory. A product shipping here defaults to ka-GE.
At a glance
Each figure is drawn against the rest of the world, so a number means something before you have any other market to compare it with.

84% of 4.9M people use the internet, per the World Bank's 2024 figure. CLDR population multiplied by that share, so read it as an estimate rather than a headcount.

Share of adults who can read, as recorded in CLDR territory data. Low literacy shifts a product toward icons, audio, and video before it shifts toward another language.
What people speak
Shares count first and second languages, so they sum past 100% and one bilingual person is counted twice.

Filled bars are nationally official languages. Every bar is drawn against the largest language rather than against 100%, so a 1% language stays visible.
One country understates a language. CLDR records diaspora too, so a language usually reaches further than any single page shows. The language profiles show each one's full footprint.
