French Polynesia covers 2,618 km² km² on the new Equal Earth world map — 0.0%% of all land on Earth, making it the 178th largest country in the world and the 9th largest in Oceania. At 15° latitude Mercator only inflates French Polynesia by about 7%%, so the old and new maps largely agree on it — unlike the far north, where Mercator's stretch is dramatic.
