Toponymic Footprint 93,531 place names from NGA GNS

Which languages name the landscape here, and in which writing systems. A language's toponymic footprint and its speaker population are different measures and often diverge. Counts include variant and foreign-language renderings of the same place, so a language can rank high because outside sources record names in it rather than because it is spoken locally — and a widely spoken language can be almost absent where official naming is in another language.

LanguagePlace names Share*Script
Turkish (tur) 36,007 94.4% Latin
Russian (rus) 1,426 3.7% Cyrillic
English (eng) 317 0.8% Latin
Arabic (ara) 123 0.3% Arabic
Persian (fas) 84 0.2% Arabic
Greek, Modern (1453-) (ell) 84 0.2% Latin +1
Bulgarian (bul) 41 0.1% Latin +1

* Shares are of the 38,163 names that carry a language code; the remaining 55,368 of 93,531 are unattributed, so these percentages do not divide into the headline count. Names follow the US/BGN convention.
