1. Overview
“In the early 21st century, five French overseas entities - French Guiana, Guadeloupe, Martinique, Mayotte, and Reunion - became French regions and were made part of France proper.”
CIA's The World Factbook (2013)5
As a territory of France I do not have many specific statistics for this territory in its own right.

There isn't much information in the database for Réunion, most likely because it is either a part of another country (i.e., a territory or possession) and therefore most international statistics are counted for the country as a whole, or, this is such an exotic place that little data exists about it.
