abstract
| - French Concessions in China were dependencies in charge of the Ministry of Overseas Territories (ministère d'Outre-mer et Territoires, MOMT). The MOMT was in charge of all the administration of the concession, with the exception of Shanghai, and later Tientsin, that had the status of commune and were locally governed by an elected Municipal Administrative Council under supervision of an Administrator Superior. Administratively, between 1936 and 1945, the concessions were divide in North and South China, each headed by a Governor General. For electoral purposes the French Concessions were collectively considered a single electoral district for the elections of the National Assembly. Only French citizens voted for the presidential, legislative elections and municipal council elections. Non French that resided in the concessions over four years could vote for the delegates of the Advisory Public Boards (Territorial Advisory Council in Kwang-Chou-Wan). The Gendarmerie de d'outre-mer in each concession was responsible for public order. An auxiliary force, Garde Indigene, was created for Kwang-Chou-Wan. The Garde Indigene consisted of recruits from the French Indochina.
