Nice quiz! Note: French Guiana is to France as Hawaii is to America! France should most definitely be on this list.

Yes, and France IS in Africa (Mayotte, Réunion), and IS in North America (Saint-Pierre et Miquelon), and IS in central America (Guadeloupe, Martinique, St Bath, St Martin), and IS in Oceania, where I live (i'm in Tahiti)... whether you like it or not! And even a part of it is in Europe! ;-)

Well, not quite. Not in North America or Oceania. St Pierre and Miquelon, Tahiti, and a couple others are not overseas departments, but overseas territories—more like Guam or Puerto Rico than Hawaii. The oversees departments are: Reunion, Mayotte, Guadeloupe, Martinique, and French Guiana.

Overseas territories have a different status than overseas départements, but they're still an integral part of France, with citizenship, and voting rights and everything. We don't do second-class citizens (well, not anymore, anyway...).

Think of France like the UK, it is a sovereign nation containing many smaller countries so, France = France, French Guiana, Martinique, Corsica etc. and, the UK = England, Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland, Anguilla etc.

French Guiana is a part of France. Unlike say, the UK, the vast majority of France's oversea territories are counted as being official part of France.

If you want to get salty, take it up with the French government, not Jetpunk.

SouthwestChief

No, not the vast majority. There a five overseas departments (Reunion, Mayotte, Martinique, Guadeloupe, and French Guiana) and six overseas territories (St Pierre and Miquelon, St Bart’s, St Martin, New Caledonia, Wallis and Futuna, and French Polynesia). But I see your point. The UK, for example, has zero overseas departments and 13 overseas territories.

Well Schrodinger's cat is about the quantum physics of matter being in multiple antonymous states at once, but the Antarctic territories are just plain BS. I mean they overlap and everything, and still the research stations there aren't actually used specifically by the people who claim them. Also how the Fk did Norway get a claim there? I get France and the Uk still hold Colonial possessions near there, but Norway??? I mean somehow they have Bouvet Island and a sizeable portion of Antarctica claimed. anyway the claims are nonsense anyway since other than Argentina and Chile the Countries are all aligned with eachother.
