About Feddan
A feddan (فدان) is the primary unit of land area in Egypt, Sudan, and parts of the Arab world, equal to approximately 4,200 m² (1.038 acres or 0.42 hectares). Its name derives from the Arabic word for 'yoke of oxen,' reflecting its agricultural origins - similar to the British acre. Egypt reports its cultivated farmland in millions of feddan; the fertile Nile Delta that feeds Egypt is measured in feddan. The feddan is subdivided into 24 kirats (each ~175 m²). It remains the legal standard for agricultural land registration in Egypt and Sudan.
About Square Megameters
A square megameter (Mm²) equals the area of a square with sides of one million meters - 10¹² m², or one trillion square meters. At this scale we describe major geographic and planetary regions. The entire land surface of Earth is about 149 Mm², the Indian Ocean covers roughly 70 Mm², and the Sahara Desert spans approximately 9.2 Mm². Square megameters provide a convenient scale for comparing continent-sized areas without resorting to hundreds of millions of square kilometers.
