it's not uncommon for germans to use US-ASCII keyboards (QWERTY).
other use german keyboards (QWERTZ).
in both cases the codepage is 437 (BIOS default) or 858 (with €), but
Y and Z are swapped.
the same is probably true for french keyboards.
French people use only AZERTY keyboards, although IIRC Canadians in
Quebec do have some weird QWERTY variation.
That being said, the "one nation uses two keyboards" situation is true
in Poland. There, we use either the "Polish/Programmer" layout, which is
in fact an US keyboard with Polish keys available under ALT+something
(eg. ALT+x produces "ź"), or the "Polish/Typist" keyboard, that is a
copy of the keyboard layout used on post-WWII typewriters, with Polish
characters available without ALT combos.
