+.. admonition:: Comparing Polygons
+
+ Note that it is possible to compare ``Polygon`` objects directly with ``<``
+ or ``>``, but as the comparison is made through Polygon's
+ :class:`LineString`, it does not mean much (but is consistent and quick).
+ You can always force the comparison with the :attr:`~GEOSGeometry.area`
+ property::
+
+ >>> if poly_1.area > poly_2.area:
+ >>> pass
