    This looks wrong. The UK is not that big, and the US is not bigger than Russia. And other countries look off too

    Edit: I got bamboozled

      No it’s definitely right. Especially useful to contextualize second Alaska. I’m not sure how big you thought second Alaska was, but maybe this will help give you some perspective.

    My favorite fact about how big Alaska is, is that you can fit at least a dozen Alaskas inside of Alaska.

    If you were to divide Alaska into two equally large states, Texas would become the third largest state. And that’s a true fact.

    Ok but do you really want grizzlies to be hanging out in a very dense bear city if they shrunk Alaska to make it more reasonable?
