Where Basque is spoken

Every territory CLDR records, largest speaker count first. Share is of that territory's own population, so the column has no total.

CLDR does record diaspora populations, so a language usually appears in more territories than its home markets, at small shares. Those rows rarely justify a launch on their own, but they are why total reach runs higher than any one country page shows. A dash in the online column means no World Bank internet figure, not zero.
