Area in km²: Wikidata’s figure (P2046, the whole or the land area, whichever matches the outline) where it is within a factor of two of the outline’s area; the official area where the national statistics office gives one (countries whose divisions changed since Natural Earth); else the area measured on the outline. Each item names its source. France (with the French colonial empire): places once under its rule and not now, from Wikidata’s dated country statements and colonial-empire membership, and the CIA World Factbook’s independence dates; military occupations of a few years are left out. A region of a country held as a whole is left out: the country is the answer there. Sources: OpenStreetMap (ODbL), Wikidata (CC0), national statistics offices.
