PTZjh8V

Redditor afrofagne created an interesting map of how countries are gendered in French globally. Some interesting patterns:

• North America and the Western Hemisphere is largely masculine.
• Most of the central Asian -stan countries are masculine.
• Much of the Central Africa Congo basin is masculine.
• Much of the Amazon basin is masculine.
• The most diverse area is the Caribbean, where the French had colonial influence.
