This is not a question of language. They are different concepts, and
irrespective of the language you are speaking, it must be possible to
distinguish between the two. Of course it is possible that you need more
than two words for one or the other, using more descriptive terminology
instead of an accepted Proper Noun. 

If a language doesn't have a term for "Metropolitan France" then there
shouldn't be a name:xx in OSM.
