Which country has more lakes than the rest of the world combined?
China
Russia
Canada
United States
Fact: Canada contains an astonishing number of lakes — over 879,000 of them — accounting for roughly 60% of all the world’s lakes. Many were formed during the last Ice Age, when retreating glaciers carved vast deep basins that filled with meltwater. These magnificent lakes range from small ponds to enormous bodies like Lake Superior and Great Bear Lake. In fact, Canada’s lake surface area alone covers nearly 9% of the entire country, making it not only the world leader in total lakes but also one of the most water-rich nations on Earth.
