French Guiana, France

Since the 16th century, France has had a presence in French Guiana, yet French Guiana became a Formal French Colony in 1946 when French Guiana became a far French Department. Currently, French Guiana has the status of a Single Territorial Collectivity of France, which runs under the Assembly of French Guiana.

Note, French Guiana has no official flag, so the French Flag is used in French Guiana, as well as the unofficial local flag of French Guiana.
