Although most ethnically French people speak the French language as their native tongue, there are large numbers of people of French ancestry outside of Europe who speak other first languages, particularly English in North America (excluding Québec) and Spanish in South America. Although most French people are Roman Catholic to one degree or another, many others belong to other religions, such as Protestantism or to no religion at all.
