An equal-area atlas that lets you compare countries at their true relative sizes, with a daily guessing game.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-07 issue.

Field notes

The atlas uses the Equal Earth projection to preserve country areas while retaining recognisable continental shapes. Visitors can drag a country across the map as the underlying globe rotates, then inspect a numerical ratio for the comparison. The homepage covers 235 countries and cites Natural Earth, Wikidata, and the World Bank as data sources. It also separates the atlas from a daily round, leaderboard, country index, and Android app link.
