India vs. the United States
India is the world’s second most populous country, with over one billion inhabitants, however it is just the sixth largest in terms of surface area. While the United States may not appear to be significantly larger than a South Asian country, it is — nearly three times larger, to be precise.
India has a surface area of roughly 3,287,263 square kilometers, whereas the United States has a surface area of 9,833,517 square kilometers. So, if you see a word map soon, don’t make the same error we did and believe India can fit within America’s borders. The country is larger than it looks on a globe map, despite its diminutive size!
