Ireland covers 68,700 km² km² on the new Equal Earth world map — 0.1%% of all land on Earth, making it the 122nd largest country in the world and the 22nd largest in Europe. At 53° latitude the old Mercator map inflates area by about 2.8×, so it drew Ireland closer to 190,986 km² km² — a difference of roughly 178%%.
For scale: Ireland is roughly the same size as Czechia (78,487 km² km²).
