A number of aspects on this map should make this one relatively easy to guess. Colours are non political, but often used in certain electoral maps.

At least we can recognize that's a Third Republic map ( Alsace-Lorraise in white ).
So, if it's not political, what does it deal with ? Demographics ?

I meant the colours do not represent any political party. But the map itself is related to politics.

Something with deputies or senators, if not ties wouldn't make sense.

I try to guess : does it deal with whether those parliamentaries voted for or against a law or an amendment ? With red=majority of no and green=majority of yes.

Yes. Now guess the law. The map doesn't make that too hard.

Looking at percentage in the Ouest ( Vendée especially ), I would think it has to do with a Monarchy/Republic choice. So I will say ( but it's only hypothetical ) the amendment Wallon.

It's not the Amendement Wallon.
So is it related to the 1905 law on the separation of the churches and the State?

You got it! It's the final vote on the 1905 law.

Parisian crown is interesting, such as Ardèche/Drôme, most of their population is along the Rhône and the Rhône seems to be enough to make a big difference. When the presence/absence of bridges would have a role in religion...

Note that this is the map of how the MPs voted. I have reason to think a popular vote would have been a tad different (but the same picture overall).
After all, people elected these MPs, but if in such and such area the hardline Cathos abstained for such and such reason...

Hint: It's a political map related to elections. The answers appear in maps in the French election maps thread.
Colours aren't really political though the shading is important.

Yeah, ultra-dark shades in the Paris suburbs, the Nord and the Bouches-du-Rhône make it certainly related to communists.

Nope. It's quite straightforward, not related to any percentages or stuff.
The answer is posted somewhere on my userpage or an add-on to my main userpage somewhere on Wikipedia... :)

Michael Howard did pretty well in Ille-et-Villaine's 7th in 2007, eh? How'd he get the LO and MPF nominations, anyhow?
Dark red: Departments currently represented by one or more PCF deputy.
Red: Departments electing one or more PCF deputy between 1988 and 2007.
Light red: Departments electing one or more PCF deputy between 1958 and 1986.
Gray: Departments never represented by a PCF deputy since 1958.

Right (sort of). I also purposefully left the name of the file up so I dont know (or care) if you cheated :P
I made this over 3 years ago. I know that Dark Red is "really anglo" whereas red is "anglo" but dont remember what the purples mean exactly. I THINK Dark Purple is areas where allophones have a majority, and light purple are areas where no one has a majority but I don't remember. If anyone knows, please tell me!

Allophone is neither Anglo nor Francophone in terms of mother tongue.
