The continuous US states are 8,080,460 square kilometres.
Europe is 10,186,000 square kilometres.

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?
Not far off.
