The eternal spaniard doesn't speak anything other then castellano.
>completely different
>all of them, except four, are indo-european
>some are even inter-intelligible to a point (danish/swedish/norwegian for example)
Well, David-kun, your premise is wrong, but I'll answer you anyway; because for the longest time europeans have been trying to kill each other. Nowadays speaking at least two or three languages is the norm.
>Can people live near borders speaks multi-language
Depends on the region, but generally yes.
I'm from Croatia, near the Hungarian border, languages couldn't be more different, but people here speak both.
Even the Netherlands has Dutch, Frisian and Limburgish (and meme stuff like Dutch Low Saxon, Papiamento and English).
>Can people live near borders speaks multi-language?
They usually can.

Holy shit I thought only Hungary and Eastern Europe makes these low budget god awful music videos
If you think that's low budget you should see our biggest hits atm..
I know this type of stuff is considered embarrassing shit, but I love it desu.
It's one of the three biggest music genres here.
1. Dutch carnival music, which is what we call it
2. Electronic music
3. Dutch rap

Lmao, agree with At least you have originality. We just mindlessly copy western pop and fake gangster rap
I'm not an expert but I think India has even more language diversity with 1 country.
