| Africa's geographic size is equal to 18 countries. The United States covers barely one-quarter of the continent with a land mass roughly the same as West Africa.

(Hint: it's about where Arizona is on this map.) The map is a creation of digital graphic design pioneer Kai Krause, copyright-free 2010.
