Anglosphere is a neologism which refers to those nations with English as the most common language. The term can be used more specifically to refer to those nations which share certain characteristics within their cultures based on a linguistic heritage, through being former British colonies. In particular, this includes the United Kingdom, from where the language originates, Australia, Canada (except Quebec), New Zealand, Ireland and the United States.
The Shorter Oxford English Dictionary defines the Anglosphere as "the group of countries where English is the main native language". The Merriam-Webster dictionary uses the definition: "the countries of the world in which the English language and cultural values predominate".
