    French-Guiana apparently just got France's rating as far as I can tell so what the hell is going on

      also a colonial possession and the home of France's space launch facilities, DGSE does a lot of skullduggery to keep it that way

        Well yes but why did they get Frances rating and Greenland didn't get Denmarks is the question

        Does YouGov just hate Greenland then? Or do the americans just happen to have the same opinion about France as about French-Guiana?

          it's inconsistent as hell and you are asking all the right questions

          I think it's because French Guiana is considered a part of metropolitan France. They see as much of a part of France as Aquitaine or Brittany. But IIRC Greenland is more like a protectorate or a territory than actually a part of Denmark. Not saying it makes sense, just that's the distinction they may draw.
