There is no English alphabet: English is written with the Latin alphabet.

as of the 21st Century, more languages use Latin-based alphabets than any other (more than 1000 languages).

How did the Romans influence other countries into using the alphabet?

== == By the time of the Archaic Period, the Greeks had lost the use of Linear-B. Following the resumption of trade with the Middle East, they adopted the Phoenicean alphabet which, with some modifications, is still used to write Greek. The Greek alphabet was, in turn, eventually adapted to become the Roman alphabet. The spread of the Roman Empire brought literacy and learning to all parts of the empire, some of which did not already have forms of writing. Latin became the language of choice throughout the western empire, although Greek remained the everyday language and the language of learning in the east. During the Middle Ages, the eveyday Latin dialects began to diverge into the Romantic languages, but retained the use of the Latin alphabet. Following the fall of the Roman Empire, countries in north-western Europe adopted the languages of their conquerors but retained the Latin alphabet. Gradually the Latin alphabet came to dominate throughout western Europe, although the Greek alphabet remained dominant in the east.
