North America dwarfs Turkey: about 24,710,000 km² km² against 779,797 km² km². At true size North America is about 31.7× larger — the whole of Turkey fits into North America roughly 31 times.
The old Mercator map treated both about equally (1× vs 1.7× inflation), so at least their relative sizes were preserved — even if both were drawn at the wrong absolute scale.
Turkey fits 31× into North America.
