    It was because of the expansion of Britain after the First Industrial Revolution and the accompanying cultural invasions.

    British colonial promotion was the root cause, and the strength of the United States played a driving role.

    The reasons are as follows: 1. English is composed of 26 letters, and the words are composed of these 26 letters, and the basic elements are the least at one time, so that it is relatively simple to disseminate, record, and start, and these 26 letters are the most simple and recognized among the letters widely adopted or used in the West;

    2. As the main language of Europe, English is the most culturally open, which means that it actively contains the connotations of other languages and has a large vocabulary system. The basic traditions of Old Continental languages have also been preserved;

    3. From the point of view of world history, the inheritance of phonetic characters is often easier than pictographs and other characters, and there are not many countries that still retain the use of hieroglyphs, China is the most typical, even in Japanese and Korean, I think that in addition to Chinese characters, their own elements are still phonetic;

    4. Of course, the most important reason is that the strength of the English-speaking countries in Tuanzhou is the most important reason, especially after World War II, the Bretton Woods system of the United States was built under the Bretton Woods system of the United States, including the United Nations, etc., which finally laid the foundation for English to be called the world language.

    Analysis: First of all, English cannot replace the role of Esperanto, because English is a national language and will always be a foreign language for non-native English speakers. Esperanto is a neutral language, and its equality and ease of learning are incomparable to those of any national language.

    Second, large languages have the advantages of large languages, and small languages also have the usefulness of small languages. Just as you learn Chinese, if you learn a little bit of minority language at the same time, it will be much more convenient for you to work and live in ethnic minority areas than others.

    Look up the word esperanto on Google and you'll find hundreds of millions of pages with it. It is not, as some have asserted, "a small house that exists only in linguists". It is a living language, and it is also a language that plays a real role in the life of society.

    Esperanto is a genus of languages created in 1887 by the Polish physician Dr. Zamenhof, and has been in existence for 116 years. He hoped that with the help of this language, mankind would achieve mutual understanding among peoples, eliminate hatred and war, and realize a human family of equality and fraternity. Zamenhoff published the language under the pseudonym "Doktoro Esperanto" (meaning "Dr. Hope"), which was later known as Esperanto.

    At the beginning of this century, when Esperanto was first introduced to China, some people transliterated it as "Ess is not difficult to read", and some people called it "Wanguo Xinyu". Later, some people borrowed the Japanese paraphrase name "Esperanto", and it is still used today.

    Esperanto is an artificial language created on the basis of the Indo-European language family, which absorbs the rational factors of the commonality of various languages in this language family, is more simplified and standardized, and has the characteristics of beautiful sound, strong scientific and expressive.

    Esperanto has a total of 28 letters, written in the Latin alphabet, a letter only pronounces one sound, the sound value of each letter is always the same, there is no letter that does not sound, its pronunciation and writing are exactly the same, the stress of each word is fixed on the penultimate syllable, after learning the twenty-eight letters and mastering the rules of pinyin, you can read and write any word.

    As far as I know, the English-speaking countries are: the United States, the United Kingdom, India and Pakistan have English as their official languages, Australia, New Zealand, Canada (except Quebec), and the official languages of the British and American colonies after independence are English, especially the countries with the shape of the rice flag on the national flag are basically English-speaking.

    British English I personally think is more mellowed, more pronounced and of course more traditional, slightly swallowed; In fact, it doesn't matter about the English pronunciation and American pronunciation, as long as everyone can understand what you say, it's just the difference between dialects and Mandarin.

    Britain is very old-fashioned, and it is generally correct to say it. The United States is very casual, and basically just express the meaning.

    The main reasons should be below.

    1. English is composed of only 26 letters, and words are composed of these 26 letters, and the basic elements are the least composed at a time, so that it is easier to disseminate, record, and start (such as in computer input). And these 26 letters are the simplest and most recognized of the letters widely used in the West. Chinese mainland has also given up the original ancient phonetic method and introduced the pinyin system, which can be seen.

    2. As the main language of Europe (English, French, German), English is the most culturally open-minded, which means that it actively contains the connotations of other languages and has a huge vocabulary system, even if Chinese kongfu and other English are also introduced. It also retains Old European languages (Germanic languages?). Those who know the history of Western philosophy may be more familiar with it.

    3. From the perspective of world history, the inheritance of phonetic characters is often easier than that of pictographs and other characters. Nowadays, there are not many countries that still use hieroglyphs, and China is the most typical. Even in Japanese and Korean, I think that in addition to Chinese characters, the elements of their own are phonetic.

    3. The strength of English-speaking countries is, of course, the most important reason. Especially after World War II, the Bretton Woods system of the United States was built under the Western world system led by the United States, including the United Nations, and so on, all of which finally laid the foundation for English to be called the world language.
