Definitely false statement of fact! Esperanto was not the earliest wasn't even close... of the constructed languages for international use there were many many, incredibly many, years, decades even centuries before Esperanto came on the scene. Volapuk was an earlier quite successful in it's day auxlang. Why it's validity as an auxlang should be questioned? I dunno... but I do know that there are newer auxlang projects that have come on the scene that showed a strong following, Ido of course, Latino sine Flexione Interlingue Occidental and Novial, and Interlingua de IALA, etc. So could you please change the paragraph on Esperanto? Otherwise youre doing great! I'm really excited to get one of the shirts when they come out and I applaud heartily all the work you've put in! Kudos, kudos!
