Can someone explains this map to me? The text says China leads, but the numbers say Vietnam is at 56.2%, greater than China's 40%.

I mean, it's pretty obvious.. China is huge, Vietnam is tiny compared to it. The reforested area is, therefore, much larger in China.

Also vietnam is still recovering from the war I imagine

the forests are well recovered from the war. it was 50 years ago, and the monsoons really make growth relatively easy.

I stand corrected then.
