    This isn't a trick question is it?

    ENGLAND - the answer is Loads and loads

    So far, I've found thirteen:

    -23:39 Belfast Time
    -17 Truro Time
    -13 Barrow Time
    -11 Carnforth Time
    -9 Liverpool Time
    -7 Manchester Time
    -6 Leeds Time
    -5 Oxford Time
    -3 Boston Time
    +0 Greenwich Time
    +7 Norwich Time
    +14:10 Bristol Time
    +30 Sandringham time (Edward VII said so)

    Some places still show their defiance to the House of Commons and pooh-pooh their imposition of time:

    The Bristol Corn Exchange:


    There are two different minute hands showing both Greenwich Mean Time (in black) and Bristol Time.

    The answer is France because they consider all their overseas territories to be part of France.

    See the Wikipedia entry https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_o...nes_by_country

    So, it's your question, Rollo.

    New question:
    What is the smallest distinct territory that all of the US Constitution applies to?

    American Samoa - Unincorporated Unorganized Territory... not all the constitution applies.
    Midway Atoll - Unincorporated Unorganized Territory... not all the constitution applies.


    Washington D.C. - Maybe all the constitution applies? But at 68.3 square miles, there's still something smaller.

    Guantanamo - is Cuban soil and subject to a lease to the United States. Some Cuban law applies, Some US law applies; not all the constitution applies
