If France did not reunite after the Second World War, which colonies would become free and which French faction would the others follow?
Short answerTheir alignment would depend chiefly on colonial governors, senior officers, and how the French military divided.
NotesAssigning every colony to a camp from memory would hide how contingent the outcome is. The origins and loyalties of colonial governors and senior military officers would be decisive. The manner in which French armed forces split would shape which administrations could command obedience and resources. Decolonisation and allegiance are institutional processes rather than an automatic map-colouring exercise.
