The size of Alaska - General

[QUOTE=NotMeh;23078297]lol at you acting like the Cold War was planned from the beginning. Considering it was sold in the goddamn 18th century. :downs: But the Russian Empire really sold it just for the money, because they were at war with someone (Swedish empire if I recall correctly). [editline]03:40PM[/editline] Just $7.2 Million, but that was worth more back then.[/QUOTE] No I wasn't, that's why I said "Though when it was sold this was before the USSR formed."

[QUOTE=Baboo00;23078683]Yes, but if global warming keeps on going at this rate, it will soon become a warm, fertile region with lots of natural resources.[/QUOTE] Fucking global warming.

Why is England and Wales labelled as the UK and Scotland isn't

[QUOTE=The_Lizard_Xing;23077938]Asia is a continent, of course 2 continents will outsize one country.[/QUOTE] Russia alone massively outsizes US, and Russia is not a continent, it's a [u]country[/u].

[QUOTE=16bit;23077929]If you count Russia and Asia as "Europe" then the US is heavily outmatched.[/QUOTE] Half of Russia is in Europe...

How is it part of the continental US if they don't touch each other.

[QUOTE=XxLiquidxX;23078832]How is it part of the continental US if they don't touch each other.[/QUOTE] uh because that huge country called Canada is part of the continent

Wow I never knew it was that big.

[QUOTE=NotMeh;23078297] Just $7.2 Million, but that was worth more back then.[/QUOTE] Even though it was a lot at that time it was probably one of the worst deals in Russian history.

Basic Elementary Geography?

[QUOTE=FreedomFighter;23078786]Russia alone massively outsizes US, and Russia is not a continent, it's a [u]country[/u].[/QUOTE] Note how he said [u]2[/u] continents not 1.

[QUOTE=FreedomFighter;23078426]US and Russia size comparison: [img]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/1/1f/Russia_USA_Locator.png[/img][/QUOTE] That map is definitely not proportionate.

[QUOTE=16bit;23077929]If you count Russia and Asia as "Europe" then the US is heavily outmatched.[/QUOTE] Why the fuck would you count Asia as Europe?

Man, Europe sure is puny! And ALL of the UK is basically the size of many US states... it's pretty funny though how they feel like they can compare themselves to OUR ENTIRE COUNTRY

[QUOTE=bravehat;23079060]Why the fuck would you count Asia as Europe?[/QUOTE] He means the part of Russia that is located in Asia.

[QUOTE=cagafuego88;23079066]Man, Europe sure is puny! And ALL of the UK is basically the size of many US states... it's pretty funny though how they feel like they can compare themselves to OUR ENTIRE COUNTRY[/QUOTE] no it's dumb comments like this that we compare ourselves to why the fuck would you compare one amount of dirt to another

[QUOTE=cagafuego88;23079066]Man, Europe sure is puny! And ALL of the UK is basically the size of many US states... it's pretty funny though how they feel like they can compare themselves to OUR ENTIRE COUNTRY[/QUOTE] They don't compare sizes idiot.

[QUOTE=cagafuego88;23079066]Man, Europe sure is puny!

I mean by that logic China and America are pretty much the same, both big countries with a lot of people. And honestly being compared to america is an insult, one word for you. Texas.

Thumbnails motherfucker use them!!

That's just Western Europe [IMG]http://www.flightglobal.com/blogs/runway-girl/Europe.png[/IMG] This is more like it, but there is no clear definition where the European "borders" are. [editline]02:06PM[/editline] Is this supposed to be some kind of dick comparison?

Who cares if Alaska is huge? There's fuck all there right?

you can see russia from alaska and talk to russians :downs:

[QUOTE=16bit;23077929]If you count Russia and Asia as "Europe" then the US is heavily outmatched.[/QUOTE] What do you mean? -Counting [u]only[/u] Russa and the whole Asian continent as Europe -Counting[u]only[/u] Russia and [u]it's[/u] Asian part as Europe -Counting Europe, Russia and Asia as Europe -Counting geographic Europe (including Russia's european part) as Europe

[QUOTE=Baboo00;23078683]Yes, but if global warming keeps on going at this rate, it will soon become a warm, fertile region with lots of natural resources.[/QUOTE] All part of the plan.... :byodood:

Why [I]did[/I] they only count half of Europe in the OP anyway?

[QUOTE=cagafuego88;23079066]Man, Europe sure is puny! And ALL of the UK is basically the size of many US states... it's pretty funny though how they feel like they can compare themselves to OUR ENTIRE COUNTRY[/QUOTE] Area of Vietnam: 128,527 square miles Area of USA: 3,794,101 square miles

THIS is what maps are here for.

I find it interesting that many people think that the USA is bigger than canada. A good dick-size comparison list: [url]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_and_outlying_territories_by_total_area[/url]
