7 Surface area
The surface area of France is 550,000 km², making it the largest country in Western Europe, and about 20% of the total surface area of the European Union in 2002. Two thirds of the surface area of France is covered by plains, largely agricultural, the remaining third by several ranges of mountains, notably the Alps, the Pyrenees, the Massif Central, the Jura, the Ardennes, the Vosges and the Morvan. 26% of the surface area of France is now covered by forest, the French forest being the third most extensive in Europe after Sweden and Finland. The proportion of France covered by forest (see Landes, Forests) has doubled in the past 200 years.Dictionnaire Français-Anglais. Agriculture Biologique > Surface area
