you need to familiarize yourself with how Map projections distort the shape and size of land masses, because that’s the only way i can imagine you got this idea.
it’s not even close, Alaska is way smaller than Europe. go look to some actual statistics. with all of its landmass combined the United States is 0.98x the size of Europe. it’s smaller, but barely. they are nearly exactly the same size if you made them both into a circle.
please look things up to confirm before you comment.
this is not true. Russia is not included in this stat. Russia is way bigger than America on its own.
why does everyone on this website have wild misconceptions about the size of America and Europe. it goes both ways, I’ve had to fight Europeans that thought America was “nearly as big as eastern Europe” on here before too. why are so many people so confidently incorrect about such an easily confirmed fact???
Europe land mass absolutely includes a large chunk of russia. The land mass of the EU does not and is much smaller than the USA. When you include russias chunk it’s roughly the same size of the USA.
Texas is about the size of France, with The Netherlands tacked on. Europe would fit east of the Mississippi, not in the second largest state.
Alaska, however, is bigger than Europe

If you added in russia…russia doesn’t count because 95% of it is baren wasteland with no rails.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Europe#:~:text=Europe covers about 10.18 million,largest after Asia and Africa.

Alaska is 1 477 300 km2
Europe is 10 180 000 km²
Alaska is smaller then Europe by quite a bit.
Alaska is huge sure but definitely NOT larger than Europe
