I was looking for flag context of the time, and it seemed like stars were already in use. Of course, I have since closed the browser windows. But, I kind of like the idea that if it were an alternate timeline, the nation that might eventually develop would still use stars for its states/provinces/districts.
I almost used eight pointed stars. And I almost used a single eight pointed star.
EDIT: I went for a quick look again, and stars were not in use that I can see for anything French. So perhaps no stars, unless it was specifically to set the new lands apart. I still think your design kicks butt. Maybe later, I'll redo mine with 6 pointed or 8 pointed stars. Gotta do actual work type work for a bit.
