In Africa surprisingly.
Are they not teaching where to find Wikipedia in school these days?

mainly west and Northwest Africa....

Tunisia/Morocco - a lot of influence, Mali, Mauritania, Burkina Faso, Cote d'Ivoire, Togo, Tchad, Central African republic Senegal, Cameroons and Eq Guinea.... Then there was an outpost for the Foreign Legion in Djibouti. That place is half way up the ar-se hole of Africa known as the Red Sea,

Dont think I have forgotten too many.

Rwanda and Zaire were Belgian
Algeria is one I have missed.
There was a huge French colonial influence in Egypt - you only have to look at the buildings along the coastal strip in Alexandria - 'Cannes with measles' was Michael Palin's summary.....Egypt resists viewing itself as part of Africa and most Egyptians go politely quiet if referred to as African. Consequently the whole French colonial Africa shtick gets focused on Algeria, Morocco and Tunisia.
