What do you mean with a single culture?
like ussr. even thought there's no reason to have more than 1 language. language is just a channel for communication, people don't get that. they want to be unique and that causes problems
If the one language was perfect, sure. But language is a lot more than just a way of communicating. It's a part of many peoples identity and there's a lot of art (lyric, songs, opera) that often doesn't translate well to a different language.
What I'd like would be a sort of basic language that is being taught worldwide so that its possible to communicate everywhere.
