  Status rejected by referendum

A single territorial collectivity (Template:Lang-fr unique) is a chartered subdivision of France that exerts both the powers of a region and a department.

This status has been introduced in Mayotte in 2011, in Martinique and Guiana in 2015, in Corsica in 2018 and in Alsace in 2021.

The nature of a French single territorial collectivity is set forth in Article 72 of the French Constitution of 1958, which provides for local autonomy within limits prescribed by law.[1][2]
