You realize France also controls all of SE Asia thanks to me loaning my colonies, as well as most African colonies. race would also control most of Brazil, Portuguese colonies, various dutch colonies, in fact, every Portuguese/British/French/Spanish/Dutch/Danish colony not belonging to me belongs to France. That is a large nation. Due to the fact that there are too many colonies for me to hold with a clear conscious, I would say France sold you any of those, or maybe awarded them duet something. However, the french main;land is too critical to my history.

So you're basically saying... you've made france you're puppet and you just don't want to make it look like you own a hole heap of land. Why'd you make history for a country you nor anyone else controls...
