Turkmenistan covers 470,600 km² km² on the new Equal Earth world map — 0.4%% of all land on Earth, making it the 53rd largest country in the world and the 13th largest in Asia. At 39° latitude the old Mercator map inflates area by about 1.7×, so it drew Turkmenistan closer to 781,196 km² km² — a difference of roughly 66%%.
For scale: Turkmenistan is roughly the same size as Somalia (473,622 km² km²).
