Unless they try to force some auxlang on everyone (which they might
have to do); I'd say English and Spanish would be the two biggies.
With the obvious minorities of Native langs (not so minority in some
places, perhaps); French and a few others.
Either that or _everyone_ learns the two main languages, regardless of
cradle tongue. Maya speakers would have to learn English and Spanish;
English speakers would only have to learn Spanish. I don't think
there's _any_ way you can get everyone to learn just one.
Neat history, though.
