So many answers, so little information and none are correct.
The answer starts in what standard system you choose to use.
In the English system (Land Surveying, Real Estate, Law in the US), the answer is a "section" which is 1 mile by 1 mile or 640 acres. The base unit of this system is "acre", which is 43,250 sq ft (or 360' by 160'). An acre was actually defined by "rods" of approx 16' longs, which became "chains" in surveying (back when young George Washington was a surveyor in Ohio).
The next largest unit in that system is "section".
In old metric, a hectare is 10,000 sq meters (100m by 100m). There is no unit called a kilo-hectare and "square Km" is not reconized as a unit of measure, so it gets more interesting.
The term "hectare" isn't recognized by the new SI system (International System of Numbers) anymore and there is no "next larger" term in the SI system. At present, it crosses back to "section" and equates to 257.2 hectares or 2,572,518.2 sq meters.
Nominally, they give the value of a "section" in SI as 2.6 million sq meters.
