ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Overseas province

Okay, so imagine you're playing a game with your friends and you have different teams. Each team has their own area, right? Well, a country is kind of like a big team with a really big area, and sometimes they have smaller teams within that big team called provinces.

Now, let's say there's a province that's really far away from the big team's main area. It might even be in a different part of the world! That's called an overseas province.

It's like having a little team really far away from the big team, and they might have different rules or ways of doing things because they're so far away.

But even though they're far away and have their own rules, they're still part of the big team and they still have to follow some of the same rules and do what's best for the big team as a whole.
