Yep, one of my favorite comparisons is that Germany is about the same size as Montana

    Even people inside the US have a poor concept of just how big it is.

    Like, only India, Russia, and to a lesser degree China compare to the US in terms of livable land area. After that is Brazil at less than half.

    I honestly don't think it's a coincidence that the four countries with the largest liveable area have a serious authoritarian leadership problem right now.
