What is required to support European language data?

Brian TkatchFeb 19 2014 — edited Feb 24 2014

Oracle 11.2.0.2.0

Our database supports North American data, but we are about to foray into Europe and all its languages. The question came up how to support other languages. I though, another SCHEMA (for development, at least) and using NVARCHAR2 will handle all that. Is that enough, The development should be in English, as well as all object names. The data itself may be in other languages.

Do we need to do anything other than use NVARCHAR2?
