I AGREE WITH THE OTHERS I HAVE NOT GOTTEN ANY ANSWERS FROM YOUR PAGE

I MUST SAY HOW IMPRESSED I WAS WHEN I LOOK AT THE COMPARISON. MY CANADIAN FRIEND AND I WAS IN A HEATED ARGUMENT THAT THE USA WAS BIGGER THAN CANADA I WAS SO WRONG. BECAUSE CANADA IS BIGGER THAN THE USA BY NEARLY 600,000 SQUARE MILES. THAT SETTLED ALL THE AGRUMENT. OVERALL THE SITE IS GOOD BECAUSE ALL THE OVER POPULATED COUNTRIES ARE THERE. THIS IS RATE ABOUT AN EIGHT OUT OF TEN

shelly

yeah i agree i just want to know what country has the largest lan mass or area! w/e just tell us!!!!!

I must say, that I don't think anyone really answered the question. The question plain & simple, is what is the biggest land mass in the world. If it were country land mass, then I am afraid Russia is discounted, despite it's previous size. China has a good chance though. given that, even though there were many attempts at overtaking & dividing it, it still remains a whole, outside of it's neighboring countries. It seems that the answer might well be Russia & the area surrounding it, to be fair.

It's CANADA, no question. There is no Soviet Union. That's why in the World Cup of Hockey there are countries like Belarus, Slovakia, Czech Republic, etc.

Was this some school project pasted on a website cause your info is a little outdated. Russia is now recognized as a bunch of independant countries and cannot be defined as one large country. How is the US not larger than China. Are you not including Alaska and Hawaii?? Regardless, CANADA is the largest land mass under one flag, that's all you need to know. Your figures are off and I feel bad for all the kids who got sub-par marks on their geography projects because of the geography wiz who wrote this drivel.

a VERY anoyed person

You can't find the list because you're too dumb to click on the link at the top of the page. Morons.

Maybe you don't see it because you're in the reviews section???? DUHHH!!!

And to the idiot who wanted to know if the Soviet Union is the biggest, THERE IS NO SOVIET UNION DUMMY!!!

oh my goodness! what is the big debate? it is a LAND MASS LIST!!!! what is the problem here? it was easy enough to read and stuff....come on people.

Unequivocally Triumphant

I live in Cocos Islands, the biggest conutry in the world, are you bunch of infidels supposedly saying US is bigger than Cocos Islands ??? The US only has a tiny and insigificant area compared to our vast empire, so after we invade you and further integrate this useless territory, we'll probably have to rewrite this pathetic piece of misinformation. Your feeble army will commit suicide and fall in a bloodshed of fear and trembling at the mere visage of your unfathomable doom. Have a nice day!

the very annoyed

crazyboy

you need to learn how to answer a question plainly

your using diffrent numbers. a countries water(sq km) plus land(sq km) equals total land mass(sq km). On China you used total land mass, on US you used only dry land. Both numbers are usefull, but when comparing use the same standard.
Russia is by far the biggest country in the world. No doubt about that. I don't know what that one guy was saying.

I AGREE WITH SMARTYPANTS, I JUST WANT TO KNOW WHICH COUNTRY HAS THE MOST LAND MASS, NOT PEOPLE, NOT WHO IS UNDER ONE FLAG. I AM ASKING FOR SIMPLICITY THAT'S ALL. I AM SPEAKING FOR MORE THAN MYSELF. PLEASE GET TO THE POINT. WE ARE WALKING AROUND TOO MUCH TAPE, AND WE AS PEOPLE, HAVE THINGS TO DO/PAPERS TO WRITE. LATER, JONATHAN... ( looking for the answer, still!)

I realy injoid reading all this, Thanks a lot e the experience even though i still don't know witch is the largest country.

This is a stupid page. I didnt get any info. I just wanted to know what is the largest land mass in the world. Is it the Soviet Union? Hurry up this paper is due tomorrow.

the 2004 world almanac indicates that canada should be 9,220,970 sqkm ranking it third. there are also other small discrepencies concerning sqkm, as well as replacing sudan as #10 over algeria. thank you.

Hey Billy, Russia given there is devoid of Ukraine, Kazakh, algeria, etc. as you can see Kazakhistan down in the list.
Did you consider this, all the former parts of India - Pakistan and Bangladesh still appear in top ten most populated countries along with India at 2. And if you combine with china, OH MAN that area is soo much big in population. Ever wondered why...

Russia is the country name in conventional short form. The conventional long form of the country name is the Russian Federation.

I don't quite understand your confusion. Siberia is as much a part of Russia as Alaska is a part of the United States. Any geographic text can attest to the fact. Are you suggesting it is not? On what basis?
