    “all of Europe could fit inside the 48 continental states alone” - are you sure about that, fam?

    Maybe if you had a clue about what is going on outside of your country you would want to leave it, but alas, you don’t.

      All of Europe can actually fit inside of Texas. Three times, even. Little known fact. You can even also fit Russia there, although there might be a little bit sticking out.

      Several Texas people told me this, so it might be true.

        The continuous US states are 8,080,460 square kilometres.

        Europe is 10,186,000 square kilometres.

        I am not sure if maths has reached north america yet, but saying that “Europe can fit in the continuous us states with room to spare” does not increase the percieved intelligence of the average american.

        Europe is actually bigger than the entirety of the US, including alaska and overseas territories, but who cares about facts, right? If you can manufacture ridiculous reasons to feel better than others, who needs them?

        In what world is that “not far off”?
