That's the highest published figure of all 24 countries in the game.

The study behind it
The figure comes from Bondil et al., Eur Urol, 1992, which measured 905 men. Method: bone-pressed, stretched three times.
Note the method. This study pressed the ruler into the pubic bone, which captures the buried portion of the shaft and records roughly a centimetre more than a study that rests the ruler on the skin โ on the same man. A meaningful part of the distance between this row and the lower-ranked ones is that decision, not the populations.
A sample of 905 men puts this in the mid-range of the studies used here.
How it compares
France ranks #1 of the 24 countries in the game. That is 3.97 cm above the median of this list (12.77 cm).
Both of those comparisons are against a list of two dozen countries chosen by which studies exist, not by any sampling of the world. Treat the rank as a fact about this dataset rather than a fact about the planet.

When France came up
France has been the daily puzzle once so far. Each of those days has its own archive page.
What this figure is not
It is not a description of any individual man from France. The spread between individual men inside a single country is several times larger than the gap between any two countries on this list, which means a national average carries almost no information about a person.
It is also not medical advice or a benchmark to measure yourself against. If size is something you have been worrying about, the guide on what the pooled data actually shows is a more useful page than this one, and a doctor is more useful than either.
