France is the largest country in the EU. In fact, it is the second largest country in Europe, second only to Russia. Although Ukraine is bigger, it is not yet a member of the EU. Most of Russia is located in Asia so France takes the cake when it comes to size. That is probably the reason why France has the most time zones in the world (12 in total), also because it has several overseas territories in the Indian. Atlantic and
Pacific oceans and also South America.
