Agree in both parts. Very surprised that Laos is bigger than Belarus.

Our brains think of country size in comparison to the continent, and since Europe is so small, Belarus seems giant in comparison

I don’t like these quizzes because you have a %50% chance of getting it right and once it’s over you’re like “dang I should’ve got that one!”

I'm surprised that some were bigger than others like Macedonia is bigger than Rwanda! I swear it looks twice the size! Fun though.

South Sudan is larger than CAR according to Wikipedia. I already thought it was strange that I made this mistake.

Yes, according to both Wikipedia (SS vs CAR) and the CIA World Factbook (SS vs CAR), South Sudan is larger than CAR by more than 21,000 sq km, so that answer should be changed.

You don't need to specify "in square miles". The larger country will also be larger in square kilometres, acres, hectares, microns, swimming pools, or Rhode Islands.

Great quiz! One idea for a next quiz -- same concept except with bordering countries e.g. Haiti v. DR; Serbia v. Bosnia
