Nice! 

St Helana is a British Overseas Territory, but France owns 3 parcels of land there called French Domains of St Helena. One of course is the refurbished house that Napoleon I was in. Longwood House.

My great-great-great grandfather was one of the guards on St. Helena when Napoleon was there. My great-great grandfather was born on St. Helens.
