I always knew I was shit at geography, but holy fuck. I just looked at a world map and it isn't anything like I imagined.

Everyone always goes on about how small the UK is but it seems bigger than France and Germany.

Russia is fucking huge.

The Mercator projection isn't really that accurate for size, it squishes and stretches a lot of stuff for the sake of better navigation

I'm sure this is bait, but the UK is smaller than France. You're using the Mercator map, which is well known for being extremely inaccurate and over-emphasizing the size of Europe+NA while downplaying the size of the rest of the world. Just look at your map, Greenland looks bigger than Africa for christ's sake.
