Overseas Departments = Alaska and Hawaii Overseas Collectivities = Puerto Rico, US Virgin Islands, American Samoa, Northern Marianas. Guam Overseas Possessions = US Minor Outlying Islands.
Not quite the same, but I guess for those who know nothing it’s fine. The US territories have a higher status than Overseas Collectivities do in france
@@Red-90 I think you just don't understand what the words mean. The comparison is legally 100% accurate. Overseas departments are 100% fully fledged part of France.
New Caledonia is actually a great asset for France and the EU because the island sits on top of a nickel reserve, which has 9% of the worlds nickel inside of it. China already made their move on New Caledonia. Ocenania really can be the region that can determine the powerhouses of the 21st century.
this is true, because oceania was not of interest to anyone before, and strong colonial powers would not have allowed anything to be done, but now everything has changed
1)Saint Martin is part of EU, even though they are a collectivity. 2) Also in Saint Pierre and Miquelon and Saint Barthelemy the currency is € 3) The Kerguelen Islands and the scattered islands of the Indian Ocean are also included in the French Southern and Antarctic lands; the Antarctic territories are actually French only for France, but not for the international community.

That’s how it’s pronounced in French. Christopher Columbus initially colonised it for Spain and named it Guadalupe but when France took over in 1635 the name was frenchified to Guadeloupe (pronounced Gwadloup)

I’m pretty sure that if you showed this to someone from French Guiana that would not be happy. They may be classified as EU but are treated as 2nd rate if I understand it correctly.
Well, if they are treated the way you claim why did this happen? “A referendum on becoming an autonomous overseas territory was held in French Guiana on 10 January 2010. The proposal was rejected by 70% of voters who prefer full integration in the French central state. The turnout was 48%. A simultaneous referendum was rejected in Martinique.” it seems like a lot of people wanted to be part of France.
