Wappening on October 28, 2025 9:02 pm I knew Japan was small but never realized how small it actually is.
NoFreeLunchAnymore on October 28, 2025 9:03 pm Is that real size or just Mercator projection maps put on top of each other?
Kind_of_random on October 28, 2025 9:21 pm Now factor in that as much as 70% of Norway is considered uninhabitable due to terrain, especially mountains. Suddenly Germany isn’t that small.
Apocrisiary on October 28, 2025 9:32 pm I had an America arguing with me about this one time. He insisted that you could drive across the country in like an hour. Tried to tell, Norway is not that small….but he knew better than me apparently (Am Norwegian).
