Regarding MySql, is there a character set to support all or the vast majority of languages?
Unicode. It has several encodings: UTF-8, UTF-16 and UTF-32.
From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UTF-8
UTF-8 (8-bit UCS/Unicode Transformation Format) is a variable-length character encoding for Unicode. It is able to represent any character in the Unicode standard, yet is backwards compatible with ASCII.
