I have few problems understanding how units are managed in QGIS. According to the area column I created for a shapefile, the area of a shape is 0.7727... I just checked on Wikipedia and indeed the area of the region is 7,727 km2. So in which unit is the area column expressed? It was my understanding that because my projection was WSG84 all the units are in meters, so why my column doesn't say 7.727×10^9?
