Ancient France did not colonize anyone; it was settled by scores of nomadic Celtic tribes prior to the Roman conquest of Gaul in the 50s B.C.E.

As for the countries colonized by modern France, those include, inter alia: Algeria, Benin, Burkina Faso, Cambodia, Cameroon, Central African Republic, Chad, Republic of the Congo, Cote d'Ivoire, Djibouti, Gabon, Guinea, Haiti, Laos, Lebanon, Madagascar, Mali, Mauritania, Morocco, Mozambique, Niger, Senegal, Syria, Togo, Tunisia, and Vietnam.

In France's colonial days, it had a vast number and locations for colonies . This included Southeast Asia, South America and Africa. Quebec was once a French colony and the city of New Orleans was founded by the French. The last major colony was Algeria. After years of bloodshed, France gave up in 1962, and Algeria became independent.
