Outside of Japan, the only place to have adopted Japanese as an official language is the island of Angaur.
ALthough Japan is the home country for Japanese many other countried have many people with the Japanese speaking capability.

North and South Korea, China, Singapore, Philippines, Indonesia, Vietnam, and much much more.

But it is mainly the Asian countries that people are able to speak Japanese. If you are answering some kind of school topic, try focusing on the Asian countries closest to Japan.
The language it's self is from Japan.

Other countries are learning it, but it's Japan's language.

How many countries mainly speak Japanese?

It is compulsory in Japan to learn English in both primary and secondary school, hence many know at least the basics of English. It is also considered 'cool' in Japan to be able to speak English, much the same way that I believe it's 'cool' to be able to speak Japanese (or any foreign language for that matter). This is why many tend to try not to forget their English. With English being the international language, business negotiations between countries are often done in English, and this is yet another reason why many speak English. There is no set number on how many can speak English, and in fact even those who do not know the English language may be able to understand certain words thanks to their 'katakana' alphabet, which is reserved for foreign words that are included in the Japanese language. eg. "banana" in katakana still means "banana", and "infomeh-shion" (this is just how it sounds in the Japanese language) means "information".
