Languages:

English: 328m native speakers, 1.8bn total speakers.
French: 67.8 - 110m native speakers, only 500m in total.

International time line:
Greenwich mean time - respected the world over as THE international date line.
Paris mean time - respected in, erm, France, with some trees. Everybody else laughs at it.
