Countries Whose Main Languages Are Romantic Languages

List the countries that speak romantic languages as their main language.
I'm going to use the five most spoken romantic languages. (These include Spanish, French, Portuguese, Italian, and Romanian).
Romantic Language Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Romance_languages
Official Languages for Each Country Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_official_languages_by_country_and_territory
I will add a country if that romantic language is spoken in a major city or capital. (Doesn't have to be a national language).

- i think "romanic" is more accurate than "romantic"

- no portuguese spoken in Albania

- Russian is NOT a romanic language

- accepte "Côte d'Ivoire" please

- if you accept spanish and french for usa, then you must accept french for Italy (official language in some territories), italian for albania (widely spoken), french for Morocco, Lebanon, Tunisia, etc. (widely spoken), spanish for Brazil (widely spoken along the border with Argentina and venezuela for example)

For this quiz I went off of the source for the official languages of each country. If they spoke a romantic language then I included them, even if it was only spoken in ONE city. I forgot to accept Cote d'Ivoire which I will add. I will remove the Russian language as a romantic language. Where in Italy do they speak French? I will double check all your suggestions and change if necessary. Thank you for saying Spanish is in Brazil. I totally forgot that. Usually in the major cities and villages they speak Portuguese. I don't know if I'll include languages in territories, but I'll definitely take your consideration into mind. Thank you =)

There is no such word/term in English as "Romanic language."

I think the one you're looking for is "Romance language." Which, I would agree, is a much better term than "Romantic language."

Something weird going on with Italian/Albania. It shows up in the answer stats after you submit, but not in the grid as you are entering answers in...
