Australia / USA map comparision

For those wondering about the relative size of the Australia and the USA, here's a map.


Area of Australia : 7,692,024 sq. km.  (2,969,907 sq. mi.)

Area of USA : 9,826,675 sq. km. (3,794,101 sq. mi.)

Only 27% bigger ...

USA population : 315,730,000 (2013 est.)

Australia population : 22,974,535 (2013 est.)

ie USA is just under 14 times larger.


This means that each person in the USA has 31124 sq metres (335,012 sq feet) but in Australia, each person has 334,806 sq metres (3,603,827 sq feet), just under 11 times more area.

Ok, enough boring figures for today, back to your regular programming.
