Hello Steemians! I should welcome you here in many languages, but it would be a lot of welcomes so better not.
This is my biggest Steemit project so far and I have spent literally dozens of hours on this article so I’m hoping you would really like it. I’m going to look deeply into European non-English communities on Steemit, so I gathered information about 38 official languages from all European countries.
[tags cloud of European languages]
At first I wanted to create map of non-English European communities. I assumed it’s working mostly like in my community (Polish) or like in the biggest European communities (Spanish or German) - that people use mostly single tag in their non-English posts. But... it’s not that easy. Many languages don’t have communities and other languages are publishing posts under many different tags. So for my map I had to expand my search and that was just the beginning of many problems.
If you are here only for the map, here it is. But I’m hoping you will look at some of data below.
Bigger version of the same map
Data 101
But first let me explain something. I have used SQL database created by 
- Tag: Name of tag in Steemit,
- Posts in May: Amount of posts from 1st-17th May 2017,
- Authors in May: Amount of authors from 1st-17th May 2017,
- All posts: Amount of all posts till 17th May 2017,
- All authors: Amount of all authors till 17th May 2017,
- First post: Date of first language post in given tag,
- Last post: Date of last language post in given tag.
