France has been very active in supporting their former colonies in West Africa though.

Does nobody here know what Algeria is?

Also, someone tell me why the fuck France got to keep Corsica instead of handing it over to Italy or Spain?

>>1528049
Looks just like you are an ignorant fuckwit trying to damage control

>>1528060

Not even that guy, but just fucking google it if you don't understand. "France department" isn't that fucking hard.
