North Macedonia covers 25,366 km² km² on the new Equal Earth world map — 0.0%% of all land on Earth, making it the 149th largest country in the world and the 35th largest in Europe. At 42° latitude the old Mercator map inflates area by about 1.8×, so it drew North Macedonia closer to 45,405 km² km² — a difference of roughly 79%%.
