Africa dwarfs Chile: about 30,370,000 km² km² against 737,442 km² km². At true size Africa is about 41.2× larger — the whole of Chile fits into Africa roughly 41 times.
The old Mercator map treated both about equally (1× vs 1.5× inflation), so at least their relative sizes were preserved — even if both were drawn at the wrong absolute scale.
Chile fits 41× into Africa.
