Why are there so many black people in France?

The first reason: Guadeloupe, Martinique, New Caledonia, Tahiti, New Caledonia. These islands in the Caribbean and the Pacific Ocean are French overseas territories and French islands. Most of the inhabitants of the island are black and Creoles. Because it was colonized by France many years ago, the official language is also French. When French colonists invaded, they forced the local people to use French. Although these islands have very good autonomy, the French government has sent troops to the local area. So in the eyes of many foreigners around the world, it is no different from French territory. I remember that in 2002, France conducted 1 nuclear tests in New Caledonia. If it is a foreign land, will the exercise be allowed?

Among the black people in the team, the players from the above four French islands, because they are under the jurisdiction of France, can live in the interior of France at a young age even if they have French nationality. For example, Thuram, Henry, Anelka and Malouda came to live in Paris in the interior of France when they were a few years old.

But there are also some black players from former French colonies in Africa, such as Benin and C? te d 'Ivoire. Generally, people in these countries have dual nationality, but they choose to represent France.

The second reason: France is probably the country with the least racial discrimination in Europe. Since 16 and 17 centuries conquered North Africa and other places, a large number of people immigrated to France. Apart from world wars, France is rarely troubled by external wars, and the French have few ideas about racial discrimination. Therefore, many people from North Africa and other parts of the world are willing to move to France. That's why the French national team is much darker now. It is this freedom, equality and fraternity that makes the French national team play a stronger role than ordinary first-class teams (there are few black players in other European teams). So it is essential to witness the greatness of France from this angle.

France's cultural characteristics determine its character of being a sea of rivers, and the spirit of "freedom, equality and fraternity" that France has been adhering to since the Great Revolution has restricted its domestic racism and right-wing forces.
