Why does Russia look bigger than Africa on a map?

The knowledge of the majority of people about the relative sizes of countries is probably based on maps than statistics.
The Mercator projection, the most popular world map, distorts the size of the shape of landmasses near the pole. This results in Russia looking bigger than Africa.  Actually Africa can nearly fit two Russias.  In fact, Africa has an area of 11.73 million square miles while Russian one is only 6.6 million square miles.

One can refer to the image below to get the exact sizes of countries compared to what we are used to on a map.  

In fact, China looks equal in size to Russia!

And Australia is as big as China and USA same size as China

Greenland is rather small in real size than in the mercator map

So now you know
