Summary

Description
English: The French language in the world
 
States where French is the majority native language
(Dots: cities with native transmission, typically a minority)
 
States where it is an official de jure language
 
States where it is an administrative language or culturally important but without official status

The following things have been changed from the old "Map-Francophone World.png":

  • Vietnam, Cambodia and Laos are no longer fully colored in light blue, this is because French is not used there very much these days.
  • Mauritania, Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Mali, Burkina Faso and the Western Togoland area of Ghana have been colored light blue, because the French language is widely used but it has no official status.

Les modifications par rapport à l'ancienne version "Map-Francophone World.png" sont :
