France is not a very big country, but it has the most time zones in the world. Despite its small size, France has 12 different time zones. The United States, which is about 18 times bigger than France, has only 6 time zones. The large number of time zones is because of the overseasterritories that France has. Visitors to the different areas of France will have to keep an eye on the time difference. They may be in a different time zone before they know it.
