The Three Linguistic Spaces[1] (Tres Espacios Lingüísticos in Spanish, Trois Espaces linguistiques in French, Três Espaços Linguísticos in Portuguese, acronym: TEL) is a structure for cooperation between the Francophone, or French-speaking world, the Hispanophone or Spanish-speaking world, and the Lusophone, or Portuguese-speaking world. It is led by the Organization of Ibero-American States (OEI), the Community of Portuguese Language Countries (CPLP) and the International Organisation of La Francophonie (OIF).[2] The Francophone space is the most populous space with a population of 450 million people and also the largest space at over 20,000,000 km2 (7,700,000 sq mi). The Hispanophone space is the richest space by GDP nominal at nearly $5 trillion, slightly ahead of the Francophone space.
