Territories that were controlled in Africa by the French. The French had African colonies from roughly 1830-1977. At the height of the French Colonial Empire (1920's), France controlled more of Africa in terms of land than any other nation. France still owns some small islands off Africa and looks after its former colonies (example: Northern Mali conflict).
