Thetruesize.com

thetruesize.com is an educational geography website. The purpose of this website is to compare the true size of one or more particular countries to one or more countries located in their area. Since the Mercator projection, the map projection used for Google Maps, doesn't truly represent the real size of countries, this website was created for the purpose of showing a country's true size depending on its location. For instance, Canada and Russia would appear somewhat smaller if they were put in place of the United States or China, or in the opposite, a smaller country like Central African Republic, an African country, would actually appear to be larger in Europe when it is dragged over there than it is in Africa. What the user could do is simply search, drag, and compare the size of a country, then optionally right-click on selection to delete.
