Countries by area

Рейтинг показывает площадь стран в их международно признанных границах. При подсчёте учитываются как наземные, так и водные границы. Данные для рейтинга собирают статистические службы и организации.

The area of the state's territory directly affects the possibility of agricultural production, the variety and volume of minerals, and the development of infrastructure. Also, the size of the country dictates the need for the specifics of building a management and defense system.

States with a large territory may have several climatic zones, which affects the diversity of ecosystems and affects all spheres of life

The rating is calculated based on data collected by national statistical services and international organizations such as the World Bank and the United Nations. The calculation includes all the territories of the country, including rivers, lakes and inland waters, which allows you to get a complete picture of the size of the state.
