Reply to comment by samfreez in TIL China is bigger than the U.S. in terms of land area. The U.S. is also bigger than Canada in terms of land area. by Mewhenthe4
Yeah there’s plenty of other criteria that can be used to justify how big a country is. Population is one, even better might be ‘persons per square mile’ if you’re talking about a place like Russia where the landmass is huge but the populations are centered to specific regions

The post isn't claiming to justify anything though. It's just stating which countries have the most land mass. Not which are biggest overall or in any other way.

If you're counting a country's size as the size of their EEZ then my country is the 4th largest in the world!

Yup. I’m from California, one of the oft-repeated ‘facts’ we bring up is that our state population is higher than Canada’s, which still to this day blows my goddamn mind. And if I’m honest, makes me want to move to Canada so I can fucking BREATHE

Highly recommended! Southern Ontario is basically just a big minessoda but maybe more progressive in general. Come out and visit Algonquin Park some day. And visit Toronto. Its all a treat!

Having fewer people around you is a really nice feeling. Canadian here. We moved from a small city (1+ mil) to a town under 15k. Best decision we have ever made.
