| @BanjoZebra: Check your math.
The US is 3,794,101 sq mi (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_states) and Alaska is 663,268 sq mi (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alaska) meaning the US without Alaska is 3,130,833 sq mi. This is still nearly 2.5 times the size of India's area of 1,269,219 sq mi (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/India). |
