French Guiana is an integral part of France and therefore should be the same color as France in both cases (just like Alaska is always the same color as the rest of the US).

Don’t forget poverty dropped from 70% in 1999 to 30% in 2013. The Human Development Index (HDI) rose, and social programs expanded, with 57% of the population considered „thriving“ by 2012. This was under Hugo Chavez
The main cause of Venezuela’s decline was an undiversified economy centered on fossil fuels. That, and massive government corruption.

Wild to see that Venezuela used to have a higher GDP per capita than Spain.
Went from Franco’s dictatorship and Venezuela’s booming oil economy in 1960, to Spain’s democratization and the PSUV’s dictatorship in 2025.

Ironically it was a time when Venezuela just had a coup in 1958 led by democrats and communists against a dictatorship, when land reform redistributed land to 200,000 families and the country had a social-democratic government.

When the us want to destroy your economy it often ends like this.

If the intention of publishing this map is to induce a certain political judgement, it would be quite appropriate to include a map from 1998 and 2013… to add a little nuance.
