Answer:

There are multiple languages spoken within each cultural region of Europe

Step-by-step explanation:

Officially Europe has five cultural regions, though in practice it will actually turn out to have at least one more. Despite the people in certain regions having similar culture, they do not speak the same languages, or have the same ancestry. If we take Southern Europe we will find numerous languages, that fall into four different branches. Eastern Europe also has multiple separate branches of languages, Slavic, Baltic, Finno-Ugric, Latin, Caucasian, Northern Iranian, Turkic. The same goes for the other three regions as well, where we have multiple countries, all of them speaking different languages, some of which closely connected, while some from another linguistic branch.
