How I can change the default language after the installation?

You can edit site.ini.

Beware, however, that if you change ContentObjectLanguage you will not be able to edit any objects that does not have a translation in your new language already.

Did that make sense? :)

As David said, you need to update the database. Example (to change to french):

UPDATE ezcontentobject_name
SET
  content_translation='fre-FR',
  real_translation='fre-FR'
WHERE
  content_translation='eng-GB' OR
  real_translation='eng-GB';

UPDATE ezcontentobject_attribute
SET
  language_code='fre-FR'
WHERE
  language_code='eng-GB';

Here's what worked for me, mysql 4.1, also making sure that untranslated objects retain the correct 'real_translation'...

UPDATE `ezcontentobject_name`
SET `content_translation`='eng-CA'
WHERE `content_translation`='eng-GB';

UPDATE `ezcontentobject_name`
SET `real_translation`='eng-CA'
WHERE `real_translation`='eng-GB';

UPDATE `ezcontentobject_attribute`
SET `language_code`='eng-CA'
WHERE `language_code`='eng-GB';

Have fun!
