UTF-8 is currently most widespread character encoding. It was designed to replace all older regional / local encodings (Eastern European, Cyrilic, Asian etc.) and provide backward compatibility with ASCII. You can use different alphabets in a single document and is less data-hungry than UTF-16 thanks to its variable length encoding.

It's a group of characters that contains almost all characters of all alphabets in the world as well as other graphical characters to write content in any language. This is just a rough explanation, because the technical background behind it is more complicated than that.
