In short: By the time a person is 18, they must effectively be able to communicate and understand conversationally in 2 languages and casually use them in daily life…, if not become completely fluent…

Other than that, any language goes (whether it is a locally-known one, or a popular one worldwide),

The only thing I hope to gain from this, is to rid the world of /Monolingual Betas/

Seriously though, has this been a policy before? Because I haven’t heard of such one…

I think this can especially be used for citizenship…

Edit: I don’t necessarily have any other presupposed requirements besides bilingualism, though we may have certain notions of such in this main goal

Edit II: In furthering this venture, I have realized that my liberalism may slightly poisoned my lens…

And for clarification…

Minimum dual language system:

Main national language + other language (likely another related language, but foreign ones are fine)

    Just for context and clarification, we’re in the post-Industrial Globalized era, specifically one defined by multipolarity yet crises, and I guess during such times, bilingualism during this time feels more like a necessity, when our economies and societies feel more interconnected than usual and communication is quite important

    well we are and we aren’t. A lot of major corporations insist on doing all international business in English and most people aren’t travelling the world and will just work in the one country where they have roots and where their job is

    Being bilingual would be good but it’s hardly a necessity
