Faroe Islands covers 1,036 km² km² on the new Equal Earth world map — 0.0%% of all land on Earth, making it the 182nd largest country in the world and the 40th largest in Europe. At 62° latitude the old Mercator map inflates area by about 4.6×, so it drew Faroe Islands closer to 4,714 km² km² — a difference of roughly 355%%.
