    1. Kastellorizo (Greek island, no included) controlled by France, 1915-20.

      (also, when the French left, they handed an “honour” recognizing the “bravely” of the island population).

      Brittany was independent until 1532.

    4. Does Napoleon era France not count? Are we talking like, immediate political control compared to french exertion of influence?

    5. What’s the tiny dot in the middle of Germany? I assume it’s due to Napoleon, but why is it so disconnected from the rest of France?

      Shouldn’t England be colored at least light purple? Wasn’t William the Conqueror technically a vassal of the French King?
