Trivial Question: Why does France have so much territory world-wide?

It never seems to be noted or discussed when someone brings up French lands…
The USA map always includes Alaska and Hawaii.
(Sure, the Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico aren’t included, so, apparently ‘territory’ is considered differently obviously.)
Just some random thoughts.
The Mi’gmaq (Micmac) of Northern New-Brunswick, CA have a joke, similar to the one in THE LAST OF THE MOHICANS movie… “ They did not come here to rape to pillage and kill and conquer, the French have not the stomach for war.” ~ “ They would rather get drunk and make love with their faces and fight.”
