French Guiana has no continent assigned to it.

[SimonSchowanek]

I have been making some world maps using the countriesCoarse data. I used the "continent" variable to select the continents but found but that French Guiana was missing when I plotted the maps. It turns out that French Guyana has no continent or region assigned to it but instead just has NA values. Is this on purpose or is this a bug?

countriesCoarse@data$continent[which(countries@data$NAME == "French Guiana")]
