Bilingual sign

Some airports, such as Amsterdam Airport Schiphol, are used primarily by international travellers, and choose to use unilingually English signs, even if they are located in a non-English-speaking country.

Another example is the German-speaking South Tyrol, which was annexed to Italy during World War I and eventually became the focus of assimilation policies (the conversion of toponyms into Italian by Ettore Tolomei, for example).
