The Cape of Good Hope was the commonly known southern tip of Africa, however, the real southern tip is the Cape of Storms or Cape Agulla.
There is a misconception that the Cape of Good Hope is the southern tip of Africa as it was believed to be the dividing point between the Atlantic and Indian Oceans. In fact, the southernmost point is Cape Agulhas, about 150 kilometres (90 mi) to the east-southeast

French Indochina was made up of Vietnam (which was split into two parts: Tonkin and Annam), Cambodia and Laos (Laos was added later than the rest, in 1893).
Korea was never part of French Indochina, which also can be explained by the fact that it does not directly share a land border with the rest.
