Changes

 * 1) Also British Somaliland, Italian Somaliland & Eritrea, British Yemen, French Guiana, Syria & Lebanon are administrated by the French too. British Gambia & Malawi too. Also Togoland & Cameroon split between French & British. Now I think that should be about all of it. Done.
 * 2) Just realised that France didn't read history books so much. Most of the things mentioned in the post above are not true. Fixed now.
 * 3) British own North Somaliland at this time not France, France owns OTL Djibouti. Again Malawi isn't French but British. Done.
