THE UNITED STATES IS THE fourth largest country in the world. This can be hard to put into perspective using a regular world map, given issues with the projection style and in trying to compare things in two totally different places. So Radical Cartography put together this collection of maps with 127 other countries of the world superimposed over the United States.

How many of the countries can you name solely by their size and shape? (It might help to know that they’re listed alphabetically for the most part, but it can still be a bit of a challenge.)
