[edit] Inconsistent Use

The application of this category seems inconsistent. How can "San Francisco, California" "Los Angeles, California" and "California" all be "Former Spanish Colonies"? It is especially inconsistent that this category is part of "Former Countries" Something is wrong here.--Paul 00:31, 27 April 2007 (UTC)

There is nothing wrong with it, stop being nationalistic and stick to facts. California etc. was part of New Spain for three centuries.. --Ramirez72 10:55 11 May, 2007 (UTC)

You have misunderstood my comment. California was a Spanish colony, but San Francisco and Los Angeles were not. San Francisco and Los Angeles were/are sub divisions of California. It is appropriate for California to be included in the category but, inappropriate to include San Francisco and Los Angeles. --Paul 17:27, 25 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] You forgot..
