5 Most Forested Countries in the World Ranked by Percentage of Forest Cover

2. Federated States of Micronesia

Percentage of Area Covered By Forests: 91%

The Federated States of Micronesia is one of the smallest countries in the world. It covers an area of 702 square kilometers, out of which 64,000 hectares are covered by forests. Delving deeper into Micronesia’s forests, fifty thousand hectares are naturally generating forests. The country also has a tiny economy, which was worth just $384 million as of 2019. This lends Micronesia a GDP per capita of $3,735. The U.S. has helped Micronesia a lot in its development, but the region still relies primarily on fishing and other activities for revenue.
