100 years: A lot of smaller languages will only be available from recordings. Less than a hundred language being still in use.
200 years: Maybe a dozen still being spoken: English, Chinese, Hindu, Spanish, French (they stick to their own language like crazy, at the total expense of communication with anyone around), and a handful of others. Everything else will be archived.
Well, when Fr*nch will endure due to the almost religious fervour of their speakers, than German must too. Both countries origin story and who is considered part of the nation is founded on who speaks the language.
In comparison to the French, the Germans are a rather malleable bunch. At least then you ask something in English you get an answer instead of a silent death stare.
