Could someone produce at least a couple of countries that consider Puerto Rico to be a US colony, as the article states at the bottom? It's true that the US Congress can (and has) pass laws pertaining to Puerto Rico without PR's consent, but most internal matters are handled by the Puerto Rican legislature, and Puerto Rico isn't subject to US income taxes: [1]
The article seems to imply Iran is one, but it also implies there are "many" more.
Same comments apply for Guam, etc. Quicksilvre ( talk) 14:06, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
The newly created article List of colonies is the better suited location for the contentious list here. I just dont have the time to move it. Anyone? Nsae Comp ( talk) 22:28, 6 April 2023 (UTC)
