The language picker doesn't just change UI language, it changes which language Wikipedia is displayed.
There isn't really such thing as a "local Wikipedia" but of course coverage for a given country tends to be best on the Wikipedia in the language spoken there.
Not every language is supported (I think processing the fifteen Wikipedia dumps takes several days as is) but I believe the supported languages are the top 15 by number of articles.
