minus-squareericbomb@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·2 years agoAlaska is 1.7 m sq km and greenland is 2.2 m sq km. So I don’t think I’m too far off. So greenland is a bit bigger, when it’s crazy on the map they don’t look at all to be on the same scale. It’s even crazier for Mexico. Mexico is only a little bit smaller, but on the map it looks abysmally small in comparison.
