The point I’m getting at with colonial powers was that English/French was forced onto the locals in one way or the other. Also, British/French citizens moved to the colonies and maintained a permanent presence there, which had lasting impact all over the world.

They didn’t tend to move permanently unless it was a plantation, they were there for a job and moved back after.
