Malaysia is the 67th largest country by total land area, with a land area of 329,847 km2 (127,355 sq mi). It has land borders with Thailand in West Malaysia, and Indonesia and Brunei in East Malaysia.

The two parts of Malaysia, separated from each other by the South China Sea, share a largely similar landscape in that both Peninsular and East Malaysia feature coastal plains rising to hills and mountains.
The country is megadiverse with a high number of species and high levels of endemism.[124] It is estimated to contain 20 per cent of the world's animal species.[125] High levels of endemism are found on the diverse forests of Borneo's mountains, as species are isolated from each other by lowland forest.[110]

There are about 210 mammal species in the country.[126] Over 620 species of birds have been recorded in Peninsular Malaysia,[125] with many endemic to the mountains there. A high number of endemic bird species are also found in Malaysian Borneo.[110] 250 reptile species have been recorded in the country, with about 150 species of snakes[127] and 80 species of lizards.[126] There are about 150 species of frogs,[126] and thousands of insect species.[126] Malaysia's exclusive economic zone is 1.5 times larger than its land area

About two thirds of Malaysia is covered in forest,[113] with some forests believed to be 130 million years old.[126] The forests are dominated by dipterocarps.[133] Lowland forest covers areas below 760 m (2,490 ft),[113] and formerly East Malaysia was covered in such rainforest,[133] which is supported by its hot wet climate.

The Malaysian constitution guarantees freedom of religion while making Islam the state religion.[201]

According to the Population and Housing Census 2010 figures, ethnicity and religious beliefs correlate highly. Approximately 61.3% of the population practice Islam, 19.8% practice Buddhism, 9.2% Christianity, 6.3% Hinduism and 1.3% practice Confucianism, Taoism and other traditional Chinese religions. 0.7% declared no religion and the remaining 1.4% practised other religions or did not provide any information.[8]
