You're not the first person to say this, and it's just not true. When I went to Europe, there was all kinds of things in English, and many, many people spoke English. In fact, in international travel, English and French are the official languages. When you get on a plane for an international flight, instructions are first given in the native language of whatever country you are in, and then repeated in French and English.
