* Countries with French as an official language: These are found on four continents:

* Europe: France

* Africa: Algeria, Benin, Burkina Faso, Burundi, Cameroon, Central African Republic, Chad, Comoros, Côte d'Ivoire, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Djibouti, Gabon, Guinea, Madagascar, Mali, Mauritania, Morocco, Niger, Rwanda, Senegal, Seychelles, Togo, Tunisia

* North America: Canada (French is one of its official languages)

* Oceania: Vanuatu, New Caledonia (French overseas territory)

* French overseas territories: These are part of France, but are located on three continents:

* South America: French Guiana

* Africa: Mayotte, Réunion, Guadeloupe, Martinique

* Oceania: New Caledonia, Wallis and Futuna, French Polynesia, Saint-Pierre and Miquelon (located off the coast of North America)

Therefore, depending on the definition, French countries can be found on four or three continents.
