No, they're called "countries" actually. I highly doubt you'd get very far with this "territory" label if you were to bring it up in a discussion with anyone actually from these places.

Wait you're unaware that france has territories???? Please do some reading before doing the lecturing, it might be more pleasant for everyone involved.

I guess you're also completely unaware of the shenanigans they pull to avoid giving independence.

Mais bien sur, but they aren't the places Russia has been trying to gain influence in.

I'm not lecturing about anything, and it seems you're jumping to a whole bunch of unwarranted conclusions here.
