The 14 Most Median-Sized Countries of the World with a Map
Everyone knows the biggest and smallest countries of the world by size, but do you know which ones are in the middle? Try to figure them out with the help of a map!
Granted, like a lot of people on this site, I'm very good at geography... but still, given the nature of this quiz, I'm amazed I got 12 out of 14 on the first try.
Nice idea but I spent three minutes typing guesses before
I got a single correct answer. I ended up with 5 in the last minute but until you get an answer it’s pretty much pot luck. You can obviously rule out some of the very big countries and the very small ones but it’s tricky to work out if the average size is skewed by a lot of small countries or not. There are a lot of countries in between.
Another thing to note is that I did not go for the "average size", instead I went for the median size because it is a bit more challenging. The average country size is apparently something like 660,000 sq. km. which is around the size of Libya
Nominated :)
