For a mixed content it depends on the Unicode script type.
If there are CJK sections they are associated with

(having set that to en-GB is pretty useless anyway, probably no en-GB
spell checker will recognize CJK words, and also an en-GB breakiterator
will not work correctly in that scenario)

If there are CTL script type sections they are associated with
> style:language-complex="en"
> style:country-complex="GB"
(also here, having set that to en-GB is pretty useless as well)

For all other character based script types (including Latin, Cyrillic, ...)
> fo:language="sv"
> fo:country="SE"
is assigned.
