Africa is BIG

This is interesting, but also not an accurate comparison. Using all of North America would be a more appropriate comparison than just the lower 48 states of the US. (Cutting out Alaska removes 17% of US landmass.)

@Ehay2k @infobeautiful

The size they're quoting does include Alaska.

@deirdrebeth @infobeautiful

Ok. The image they use does not, so that's a bit misleading.
