About the map

Kazakhstan occupies an area of 2,724,900 square kilometers (1,052,100 sq mi), which makes it the 9th largest country in the world. One of the major geographic features in Kazakhstan is the Kazakh Steppe (Great Dala).
This vast swath of open grassland lies in the northern region covering 800,000 square kilometers. Another prominent feature is the Betpaqdala Desert, which is a mostly flat desert in eastern Kazakhstan.
Forests cover anywhere from 1 to 5% of Kazakhstan and are one of the least forested countries in terms of area. While the Irtysh River is the longest river, the Caspian Sea is its largest lake.
