Lol, I always forget how much random stuff France owns across the globe.
But here’s an overlay of the EU on the contiguous 48 US states from Reddit (doesn’t include Alaska, which is half as big as the whole US). That even gives the EU UK, which is no longer a member state. Alaska is really really big (like more than half the size of the lower 48 states).

As next lesson you’re going to learn about the failings of the Mercator projection - stay with me you’re going to love this!
While Alaska is pretty massive it is not as big as you think it is. Follow this link to the website that Redditor used to create the visual and drag Alaska onto the rest of the US: https://www.thetruesize.com/#?borders=1~!MTYxNTY4MzI.ODIwNzY1OA*MTA0MzY2ODQ(MzUyODQ4MQ~!CONTIGUOUS_US*MTAwMjQwNzU.MjUwMjM1MTc(MTc1)Mg~!IN*NTI2NDA1MQ.Nzg2MzQyMQ)MQ!CN*OTkyMTY5Nw.NzMxNDcwNQ(MjI1)MA!US-AK*MzU2MjMwMg.Mjg0OTg3OTk)Mw
Next drag Greenland onto Africa and vice versa, then both onto the US. Amazing isn’t it?
This is awesome!!
