The correct answer is Russia
So why is this answer correct? : The world’s largest rainforest is located in South America, but the largest forested area on Earth starts in Eastern Europe and stretches all the way to Siberia. Comprising 808.8 million hectares, these boreal forests make up over 25% of the Earth’s forests. Though they don’t include a wide diversity of tree types, the forests play an important role in keeping carbon out of the atmosphere.
