Yet again, anyone born and raised on any French territory including the overseas is constitutionally a random French citizen. So statistics computed locally make no difference between them, whatever their ethnicity, religion or background.

In other words, by "native French," we may mention any dark-skinned Catholic, any Muslim, any white person with any kind of European background or whatever. The national constitution actually implements that principle, up to demographic statistics.
