Antarctica has taken over parts of the United States and Canada
Antarctica nearly covers the whole surface area of the North American continent, which is 24,490,000 sq km. Unfortunately, it falls short, which is surprising given how huge the frozen tundra appears at the bottom of a global map. At the very least, it puts its size into perspective.
Antarctica has a population of 4,490 people and a surface area of 14,200,000 square kilometers. The continent is 75 percent greater than the United States’ 9,833,517 square kilometers and 40 percent larger than Canada’s 9,984,670 square kilometers.
