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 Meters
A square meter (m²) is the SI derived unit of area, equal to the area of a square with sides of one meter. It is the standard worldwide for measuring room sizes, apartments, houses, and land plots. A king-size bed occupies about 4 m², a parking space is roughly 12-15 m², and a small apartment might be 50-60 m². This unit is fundamental in real estate, construction, architecture, and interior design globally.
