Weird that France has both œ and æ. I only ever saw the latter in Nordic languages, but apparently it is occasionally used in French.
Wikipedia gives examples of "curriculum vitæ" and "et cætera." We use those both as loanwords in English, but I've only seen it as the separate letters "ae," not the ligature æ.
I assume direct loanwords are excluded from the list.
