"About 70% of the 10,000 babies born every year in the island's only maternity hospital in the main town of Mamoudzou are born to illegal migrants, mainly from the Comoran islands, according to official statistics.
It is said to be one of France's busiest - to the point that the government is considering declaring the hospital as non-French territory so that children born there do not automatically qualify for French citizenship."
"It is a predominantly Muslim country, and although French is the official language, only about half of the population can read or write it."
Pretty nice loophole to gain citizenship…
