"Excluding overseas territories"

How is French Guiana an exception?

Level 68
Dec 15, 2019
French Guiana is to France, like Hawaii is to the US. Not a territory, but a region geographically separated.

I love this analogy, people don't normally understand that until you compare it to Hawaii.

I Have a question: I got a pixel, where there was Canada and Greenland, but only Canada got accepted, not Denmark. Why?

Level 68
Dec 16, 2019
Because in the description it stipulates "Excluding overseas territories". Originally denmark was accepted for those squares but others complained that this was unfair to other overseas territories

You should add France in the Mayotte and Réunion squares (as they are Regions) and remove it in the New Caledonia square (as it is a Territory).

@Stewart In the square that has the tip of the Malay Peninsula and the top of Sumatra, Vietnam isn't accepted even though its tip is clearly in the square, am I just seeing things? Also, just for clarification why does it include Puerto Rico as part of the U.S. if it's a territory?
