Good to remind people that American states aren’t a good control example for area related to relevancy.
An area „the size of Kentucky“ is infinitely more significant and complex in the old world than the Americas.

So you’re telling me London is about the size of the greater Boston area ?!

As a British person this is useful for gauging the size of New England / the St. Lawrence River region in terms of how long it would take to drive. About 6–7 hours from New York to Montreal I’m guessing, which is both shorter and longer than I imagined.

I wish more non Americans could understand this concept better before they criticize Americans. Especially for American driving habits. When your country is smaller than 3 of our smallest states combined, of course you can rely on public transport. It’s also feasible to build the infrastructure for public transport.
But as it is now, driving is the only viable option in America

The thing is that, I believe most Americans just mix all big Western European country together and probably wouldn’t really understand that England is just a part of the United Kingdom.
France for example might be too big to even fit on this whole picture.
But for Americans England = France or something in size.
So by showing the most populous and „relevant“ part of the British isle cut from the rest, on this map, you actually play on that ignorance. The UK as a whole are a bit bigger than this.

I have concerns about the map projection here. You can’t just slap two areas on top of one another from Web Mercator and two different latitudes and expect it to be an accurate comparison

Why does the larger New England not just kill and eat Old England? Are they stupid?
