French Guyana is a south American territory, it belongs to France thru colonization (time will come when South American countries, especially Brazil will press the issue though)
Also in South America we have the Falklands belong to the UK (why is a country over 5 thousand kilometers away from those islands there?) I am sure eventually they'll have to let it go. (the US already told them they are 100 neutral on the matter and will not get involved as it would against its McCarthyist doctrine)
Several islands in the Caribbean (Martinique, Guadeloupe) are French, so is an island right off the coast of Canada.... why?
UK virgin islands, cayman islands = UK..... why?
Greenland, an enormous island sitting on the extreme north of the North American plate belongs to denmark.... why?
shouldn't the americas make an effort to kick Europe out? why are they allowed to have land on a continent that is clearly not theirs?

because they had empires long before many other countries existed. for instance Britain laid claim to the Falklands at a time Argentina didn't even exist, by the way Argentina NEVER owned the Falklands so it is impossible to hand it BACK.

yeah it shouldn't be argentine, but I am sure you'll lose that island and all those territories.... as the century progresses.
It's a matter only of the people living in those islands and areas and they don't want to be independent, simple as that.
Nobody forced Martinique or Guadeloupe to stay with France.
there was nobody living on the Falklands at the time, people may have visited but didn't live there, I think the only indigenous life on the islands was penguins. like I said it was a whaling station.

honey read the history of the island, it was often visited by Feugians... which have inhabited the land of fire next to the island for thousands of years (it might as well be theirs)....
the natives of the Americas made a mistake, they saw land as something that belongs to everyone, then along comes the civilized European man with class stratifications, and desperate for an earthy metal with a subjective value called gold and so on and claim ownership of lands that dont belong to them, then dump MILLIONS of slaves from Africa, then exterminate the locals on great part and then send millions of immigrants who now claim they are the "typical native people of these places"
an anglo is NOT a native of falklands.... they are settlers, the island had already been discovered and visited by Feugians (the indigenous of the land of fire) for thousand of years, in fact they considered it sort of a sacred place!!! http://journals.cambridge.org/action...3224740002204X
