While on the internet, I noticed something on French Guiana, and it got me thinking: what other mainland colonies (or islands, for that matter) could last into the 21st century? Which is why I decided to post the question here.
By colonies, I mean and land or islands under the control of a foreign power, including UN mandates.
Three basic catches:
1. You can use any POD(s) you want, although they can't be earlier than WWII: they must be after the War is over.
2. Even though I call them colonies, it should be assumed they will either be fully integrated or receive limited autonomy.
3. Keep it plausible. For example, you could say UK keeps Malta (I read somewhere there were serious efforts to make it an integral part of the UK), but if I hear one person make a claim the UK could keep India after WWII, I will summon an army of butterflies upon you.
