Well, some of the posted examples, aren't really examples of the Beaux Arts style (the thread opener meant this style, right?) or french Classicism.
I see Classicism (of various types), Moorish, Byzantine, (Italian) Neo Renaissance, and Art Deco styles here.

Actually the purpose of the thread wa to view examples of French influence around the world; in Algeria, this is more than a French influence, this is French architecture. These algerian cities look pretty much like any typical French city, in pure Haussmanian style, being built by the French who were living here.

Well, when I opened this thread I had French Classicism & Neo-Clacissism in mind (Beaux Art style, Mansard roofs, Second Empire/Haussmann etc), but other styles can be added such as French Art-Nouveau, Gothic, French Gothic revival, Normandy style, French country style, French Renaissance/French Renaissance revival, French neo-Byzantine style etc etc etc.
(+ the replicas of some French buildings/monuments built abroad etc)

PS: And about Algeria, I have to agree with francois83, but well ... at least most of the Algerian examples posted here meet the "criteria" regarding their architectural styles

This thread is about "French influenced architecture in the world", not "French architecture", that is certainly not a Persian school (Maktab), you can search for "Lazarist Schools" and find many things about this type of school, like this articel from Iranica: FRANCE xv. FRENCH SCHOOLS IN PERSIA.

Another Lazarist school in Tabriz:
