It was there since I began to work with OFBiz. It might be useful for shipping. When you want to distinguish some external
territories (called DOM in French). DOM are parts of France, but not metropolitan.

I've had shipping APIs reject it as an invalid
country code meaning I have to either remove it or change the codes to match
France. Does it really serve any useful purpose in
any real world situation?

Can anyone who knows anything about France explain why the following is listed
as a Country in our Geo table:
geoId: FXX
geoTypeId: COUNTRY
geoName: France, Metropolitan
geoCode: FX
geoSecCode: 249
abbreviation: FXX
Is this a typo and it should actually be using the COUNTY geoTypeId? I don't
see this listed in the ISO table:
