In my head Saskatchewan and Alberta always seemed way bigger.

They are pretty huge, but BC takes a big bite out of Alberta, and both provinces are (relatively) narrow :)

This really puts into perspective how huge Africa is. I would have thought that British Columbia dwarfed countries like Ethiopia - even knowing how much the Mercator projection skews countries' sizes.

I always regret not reading the instructions carefully - Canadian territories ARE included! So, I missed those two!

Wikipedia says Egypt's total area is 1,010,408 km2. Without the Sinai Peninsula (60,000 km2), shouldn't Egypt's area here be somewhere around 950,000 km2 (since the caveat says only the African part of countries in Africa is counted)?
